Lab Move Timetable – March 2025
In March 2025, Labmovers.com supported a major growth milestone for Hatch.Bio Labs and its resident companies, assisting in their expansion into Hatch.Bio Labs’ next-generation facility at 100 Chestnut Street in Somerville, MA. Three companies—Hatch.Bio Labs, Innovac Therapeutics, and Fount Bio—successfully transitioned into their new state-of-the-art space, designed to meet their growing research and operational needs.
Lab moves challenges
To meet increasing demand and evolving scientific requirements, Hatch.Bio Labs and other companies expanded into a new, purpose-built facility.
Relocated labs included:
- Hatch.Bio Labs
- Innovac Therapeutics
- Fount Bio
The move required specialized planning to transport sensitive equipment and materials. Labmovers.com provided plug-in transport solutions for freezers operating at -80° C, -20° C, 4° C, -140° C, and -150° C (liquid nitrogen vapor storage).
Additional services included:
Additionally, Labmovers.com provided the following services:
- Expert packing and transport of hazardous chemicals in compliance with USDOT regulations
- Removal and transport of lab benches and shared research equipment
- Installation of lab equipment at the new Somerville facility
- Relocation of office furniture and electronics
- Decommissioning and recycling of obsolete lab equipment
- Decontamination services to prepare spaces for future use
Lab moves execution
Moving is one of those behind-the-scenes challenges that can quietly derail momentum, especially for scaling startups. Labmovers.com initiated the logistic planning of the relocation in early February with Hatch.Bio Labs’ and completed the full move by March 28.
To ensure a seamless transition, Labmovers.com’s Resettlement Crew visited the expanded labs at 100 Chestnut Street on March 31 to verify equipment setup and accommodate any final placement adjustments based on resident feedback.
From Hatch.Bio Labs
“My favorite part about working with Labmovers.com was their adaptability. Throughout any sort of complex lab move like this, there will be some hiccups, some challenges and things change on the fly. The entire Labmovers.com team—from the move coordinators to the leadership team to the laborers who executed the move—all stayed extremely positive. They were always focused on finding a path forward as opposed to dwelling on challenges that popped up. Even when it meant it was going to extend their day a bit or maybe make their life a little bit harder. They were very positive and pleasant with our team as things were changing on the fly. Bottom line: we got the move done on time and, overall, things really went quite smoothly.”
