Overview

David Walton is the founder and CEO of Premier Office Movers, and he has spent 23 years building the company into one of Central Ohio's most trusted commercial moving teams. In this conversation he explains why clients stay with Premier for the long haul: a relentless focus on hiring the best people, service that is reliable and flexible, and a move experience that is easy and pain-free from start to finish.

He also walks through how Premier sustains its 98% damage-free record — rigorous hiring, thorough training, close supervision, and crew incentives built around protecting your space and your equipment. Every Premier employee clears a background check and drug test, arrives in a full uniform with an ID badge, and is trained not only on how to move but on how to conduct themselves on your site.

What this means for your commercial office move

If you are evaluating commercial office movers in Columbus, Ohio, the standards David describes here are exactly what you should be asking every vendor about. Who is actually showing up at your building? Have they been background-checked and drug-tested? Are they trained, supervised, and accountable for damage — or are they day labor in a branded shirt? Those questions separate a move that protects your assets and your reputation from one that puts both at risk.

David's standards run through every part of our office moving services, from after-hours relocations to furniture installation and reconfiguration and secure commercial storage.

I'm David Walton, CEO and founder of Premier Office Movers. I've been here 23 years.

Why do clients stay with Premier for so long?

The number one reason clients stick with Premier Office Movers is the people. We hire the best people in the market and back them with service that is reliable, flexible, and easy to work with. We make the whole experience pain-free — and that is what brings clients back move after move.

In one sentence, why should a facilities director choose Premier?

We're cost-effective, flexible, conscientious, reliable, and available when you need us.

Premier has a 98% damage-free record. How do you hold that standard?

It comes down to four things: we hire the best people, we train them thoroughly, we supervise the work closely, and we give our crews real incentives to avoid damage. When everyone on the job is accountable for protecting the space, the results follow.

What standards do you follow on uniforms and background checks so clients feel comfortable?

Every hire goes through a rigorous process — background checks, drug testing, and thorough interviews. Our crews show up in full uniforms with ID badges, and they are trained not just on how to move, but on how to behave and communicate on your site. Clients tell us all the time how professional and respectful our people are, and that feedback is exactly what we're after.
