Oklahoma City Commercial Moves
Oklahoma City, or OKC as some call it, had an economy dominated by government entities and the energy industry. These are still very much present, but more recently, the economy has opened itself to other lucrative avenues, including IT, professional services, and other tertiary sectors. This brought some of the lowest unemployment rates in the state’s history, and the business and housing markets began to follow suit.
There’s even more good news: With that came greater opportunities for business owners to reap these benefits. The city has special zoning regulations and business improvement districts that offer unique benefits to those established within it. This can include anything from security to maintenance and, more importantly, investments and marketing/promotion.
This is huge for any business, small or large, new or established. When you decide to move a business to a new city, it can be nerve-wracking in more ways than one. OKC makes it easier, and with Three Movers on your side, you can expect a seamless experience.

How Much Do Commercial Movers In Oklahoma City Cost?
The average cost for commercial movers in Oklahoma City ranges from $1,089 to $10,764.
Moving and storage costs are calculated using a variety of factors, the most important of which include:
Distance
Most movers would agree that distance is one of the most critical factors in generating cheap moving costs. It makes sense that a move will charge more than a long-distance move. It wouldn’t be fair to ask a customer who only wishes to move to a neighboring city to pay the same amount as a customer with plans to move to the other side of the country.
We also consider the route and remoteness of the area. Moves that take us along popular routes are usually cheaper than those along less frequented routes. The same is true whether it’s a metropolitan area versus say a small town or city.
Size of Move
The size of the move refers to its weight and the number of things to be transported. Here, more is usually more. So, the greater the number of items you wish to move, the greater the cost. As well as, the greater the weight of the items, the greater the cost of the move.
When there are a few items or even one item that is oversized and heavy, it can mean a greater expense than another move with many more items. This sometimes requires special equipment to load onto a flatbed, which also attracts extra charges.
Season
Many customers make the mistake of thinking local moving costs are static. The reality is, they change multiple times throughout the year, and even during the week!
This is thanks to a spike in demand during the peak season. Peak season begins in Spring and ends in Summer. Since most people want to or are forced to relocate during this time, the prices will naturally go up. Once the peak season passes, hauling costs begin to level out before reaching an all-time low during the Winter months or off-season.
Price fluctuations also happen on a weekly and monthly basis. The weekend is the busiest time, so prices are lower on weekdays. As for price differences during the month, the start and end of the month are the busiest, and you’ll find the lowest rates mid-month.

Frequently Asked Questions
Commercial moves in Oklahoma City often range $1,200–$6,500 for small offices and $7,000–$25,000+ for larger multi-floor operations. Pricing is shaped by square footage, employee count, 2–8 movers, packing needs, equipment disassembly, elevator restrictions, and access at both buildings. Downtown OKC moves may require timing around traffic on I-235 and loading-dock windows. Long-carry distances or handling servers and specialty machinery increase labor time. For broader guidance, see our business moving service.
Most companies secure movers 4–8 weeks in advance, especially for end-of-month or quarter transitions when demand is highest. Larger relocations requiring IT coordination, freight elevator reservations, or staged deliveries may need 60–90 days of planning. Factors influencing the timeline include the size of the office, packing requirements, building security protocols, and whether the move occurs during business hours or an after-hours shift. Local metro relocations may be feasible sooner, but availability narrows during peak seasons.
Yes. Professional commercial crews can pack, pad, palletize, and transport servers, desktops, telecom hardware, monitors, and peripherals with anti-static and shock-protection methods. Influencing factors include rack weight, cable management needs, climate considerations, freight elevator access, and whether equipment must stay powered down for minimal downtime. Moves involving multi-site IT setups may require staged delivery or overnight transport. For full-service support, review our office moving companies resources.
Small offices may complete in 4–10 hours, while multi-floor or multi-department moves often require 1–3 days including packing and setup. Duration depends on crew size, packing level, elevator availability, dock scheduling, equipment disassembly, and building rules in areas such as Bricktown or Midtown where access windows can be limited. Weather can also affect timing summer heat or winter ice may require slower handling for safety.
Many commercial movers offer relocation support for light industrial machinery, pallet racking, inventory, and specialized equipment, provided weight and clearance meet safe-handling thresholds. Key factors include forklift access, equipment dimensions, floor load limits, disassembly steps, heavy-item pathways, and whether transport requires climate or vibration control. If an interstate component is involved, moves fall under FMCSA regulation and may require additional coordination.
Yes. Many businesses choose evening, overnight, or weekend moves to avoid operational disruption. Availability depends on crew scheduling, building security hours, dock access, and elevator permissions. Costs may be slightly higher due to premium labor windows, especially for moves requiring 4–8 movers, complex packing, or multi-phase transitions. After-hours scheduling is common in high-traffic corporate corridors and medical or legal buildings where weekday access is limited.
