5. Disclaimer:

Removing IT and Office Equipment from your premises can be a difficult job. We strongly recommend that you remove any delicate items on our exit route prior to our arrival. Some large items are initially installed at your premises before the building is completed, making it very difficult or impossible to remove them without damaging doors, door frames, floors, stairs etc. We do not accept any liability for any damage that may be caused to your equipment, furniture, lifts, doors, floors, carpets, stairs and or your decor during the removal process.
