Planning a Salon & Barbershop Move

In a salon or barbershop, every chair is someone’s workplace. Stylists and barbers care where their station lands, how far it is from the shampoo bowls, and which mirror they face, and many of them rent their booth and own their own tools and product. The floor plan you agree with your team is what we move to.

A hydraulic styling chair, and even more a barber chair, weighs more than it looks, with cast bases that dent floors and pinch fingers, so they’re pumped down, wrapped, and rolled on dollies. Freestanding stations, rolling carts, hood dryers, and the reception desk are tagged to their numbered spots on your plan. Shampoo bowls and backwash units are a different job. They’re plumbed to the building, so your licensed plumber takes them off the supply and drain before we arrive and hooks them up again once they’re set. Color products, developers, and each stylist’s shears, clippers, and personal kit stay with the people who own them.

What typically moves

  • Hydraulic styling chairs Pumped down, upholstery wrapped, bases padded, rolled on dollies and set to their numbered spots.
  • Barber chairs Heavy cast bases moved on dollies with floor protection; headrests and footrests bagged with each chair.
  • Freestanding styling stations and mirrors Drawers emptied by each stylist, mirrors padded and carried upright, station numbers matched to the plan.
  • Hood dryers and processors Unplugged and folded down, hoods padded, and stands kept with their dryer.
  • Rolling carts and the color bar’s shelving Emptied first; shelves and brackets bagged together and marked for the color area.
  • Reception desk, retail shelving, and waiting chairs Retail stock boxed by your team; the desk and shelves set by the front window per your plan.

Access and scheduling

Most salons close on Sunday or Monday, which makes the evening before the move the last working shift. The plumber disconnects the shampoo bowls after the last client, we carry chairs and stations that evening or the next morning, and the plumber sets the bowls at the new shop before stylists come in. Stations go in first so the plumber has a clear back wall.

Salons and barbershops in Nocatee plazas, on the Beaches along A1A, and in San Marco and Riverside storefronts often share a rear door and parking with other shops. We confirm with the landlord which door and which hours we can use, and we plan around the neighbors’ busy times, such as a restaurant’s dinner rush.

Protection and handling

Heavy chair bases are what damage salon floors, so every chair moves on a dolly and the path is covered with floor protection at both shops. Mirrors are padded on both faces and carried upright, and station corners are wrapped so laminate edges don’t chip in the doorway.

Each stylist’s space stays theirs. Stylists empty their own drawers and take their shears, clippers, and personal products with them, and booth renters keep their own inventory. Color tubes, developer, and other chemicals are packed by your staff and moved in their own car, not in our truck. Florida heat and humidity are hard on product and on cartons, so we move retail stock straight indoors at the new shop rather than leaving it in a parked truck.

Who does what

Some of this job belongs to other trades. The written plan names each one.

Shampoo bowls and backwash units
Your own licensed plumber unhooks every bowl before the carry, then sets it, hooks it up, and runs water through it before the first client.
Wall-mounted stations, mirrors, and shelving
Your contractor unbolts anything fixed to a wall and hangs it again at the new shop; our crew carries it in between.
Tools, color, chemicals, and booth-renter inventory
Each stylist or barber packs and carries their own; the salon owner handles shared back-bar product.

Not part of our work

  • Any plumbing or electrical work on shampoo bowls, dryers, or stations.
  • Carrying hair color, developer, or other chemicals.

Around St. Johns County and Jacksonville

Salons and barbershops on the First Coast sit in Nocatee Town Center and CR 210 plazas, shops along A1A through Neptune Beach and Jacksonville Beach, San Marco and Riverside storefronts, and the busy retail blocks near St. Johns Town Center. In summer, afternoon storms can make a quick rear-door carry a wet one, so we time loading around them.

Salon & Barbershop Moving FAQs

Another question? Call (904) 209-9277.

How do we make sure each stylist gets the chair and station they were promised?

Number the spots on your new floor plan and give us a list of who goes where. We tag each chair, station, and cart with that number before it leaves. At the new shop, each piece is set to its number, so the stylist walks in to their own place.

Can our booth renters move their own things with your crew?

They can bring their tools and products themselves. We move the salon’s chairs, stations, and fixtures, including a renter’s station if the salon owns it. Anything a renter owns outright should be labeled by them, and we move it only if they and the owner agree.

Should stylists leave tools and color in their station drawers?

No. Stylists should take their shears, clippers, and personal kits home, and your staff should pack color and developer to travel separately. Empty drawers can be taped shut, and the station travels lighter and safer that way. Anything left behind is boxed and labeled with that station’s number.

Can the chairs go in before the shampoo bowls are reconnected?

Yes, as long as the back wall stays clear for the plumber. We set the styling chairs and stations first and leave the bowl area empty. Once the plumber finishes, we can place the backwash chairs if they aren’t part of the plumbed unit.
