Commercial Transfer completed the transfers to the college's new £30 million Technology Centre at their Folly Lane campus.

This involved the transfer of the library, music department, and the motor vehicle, electrical installation, furniture and painting and decorating workshops. Commercial Transfer also undertook the decommissioning, transportation and recommissioning of all specialist and heavy machinery.

The transfer was completed to schedule and the college operated with no disruption to student courses.

Commercial Transfer has carried out numerous relocation projects for Oxford Brookes University, along with amalgamation moves in connection with their merger with Westminster Institute of Education.

All the Department of Chemistry was involved in a massive relocation to the new Chemistry Research Laboratory in South Parks Road. Commercial Transfer managed the entire project, including movement of laser tables, centrifuges, all chemicals and specialist equipment requiring heavy duty cranage, scaffolds, and the organising of manufacturers' engineers. The entire project was completed on time and to budget.

A major relocation of the college from Sutherland Grove, Putney, to their new college in a Grade II Listed Building at Holybourne Avenue. Due to delays in the completion of the building works much of the college had to be removed at the beginning of December 2004, including laboratories, chemicals and specialist equipment, and taken to a temporary store whilst the building was completed.

The remainder of the equipment which could be positioned within the refurbished building was moved out during the Christmas period, where clearance of the old college was on a strict deadline due to the handover of the building. The removals were carried out on schedule and in close liaison with the builders, filling areas as they were completed.

Commercial Transfer moved the School of Chemistry to the new Dorothy Hodgkin Building in Bristol. This was from a site with difficult access, some of the work needing to be carried out with road closures on a Sunday. All the work was completed on time on an 8-day scheduled relocation.

Commercial Transfer undertook the complete transfer of South Devon College from their Torquay campus to the new campus at Long Road, Paignton. This included the transfer of the Engineering Department, the Motor Vehicle Workshops, machines and ancillary equipment.

When Kidderminster College moved to their new city centre campus, the relocation involved the transfer of all departments from various locations throughout the Kidderminster area.

Commercial Transfer move managed the entire migration, including management of specialist services.
