Moving office furniture is one thing—relocating pieces of cinematic history is another. Meyer was honored to support the Society of Motion Picture and Television Engineers (SMPTE) in their recent move, ensuring not only a smooth transition for their workspace but also the careful handling of vintage film projectors and other irreplaceable artifacts that tell the story of motion picture technology.

More Than Just a Move—A Commitment to Preservation

SMPTE is a community, actively working as one global organization to inspire, educate, and move the media tech industry forward. Alongside office furniture, they house historic equipment, documents, and memorabilia that represent milestones in the entertainment industry. When it came time for their relocation, they needed more than just a moving company—they needed a trusted partner that would treat their collection with the care and respect it deserves.

That’s where Meyer stepped in. With our expertise in handling specialized, high-value assets, we developed a customized relocation plan to ensure the safe transport of SMPTE’s workspace, including their delicate historical pieces.

Our Approach: Expertise Meets Precision

At Meyer, we understand that every move is unique—especially when it involves artifacts with both historical and sentimental value. For SMPTE, our team:

• Conducted a comprehensive pre-move assessment to identify and plan for fragile or oversized items.
• Utilized specialized packing and transportation techniques to protect vintage projectors and equipment.
• Coordinated closely with SMPTE stakeholders to ensure a seamless transition with minimal disruption.

The result? A successful relocation that safeguarded both SMPTE’s everyday operations and the invaluable legacy they preserve.
