Restaurant relocation
We relocate restaurants in 2–4 days: kitchen, bar, dining room, wine cellar. Heavy kitchen equipment lifted by Zonzini robot up to 800 kg.
Restaurant relocation needs a different team than a standard office: industrial kitchen equipment, refrigeration units, climate-controlled wine cabinets, bar systems. ELP Baltics does this in 2–4 working days with packing, heavy lifting via Zonzini Domino Lift robot (up to 800 kg up the stairs) and coordination with your chefs and suppliers. Suitable for new openings, concept refresh or closure.

Kitchen equipment

How restaurant moves differ from offices
The main difference is industrial kitchen equipment. A convection oven weighs 200 kg, a cold room — up to 600 kg, a beer system has water and CO₂ lines that must be properly disconnected per the manufacturer's instructions.
ELP Baltics works with this regularly — small restaurant groups and family-run businesses are our most common clients. Our default window is Sunday evening to Tuesday morning, so you only lose two trading days.
How we handle wine collections
Wine is a temperature-sensitive asset. Climate-controlled containers, individual insurance per catalogue value, before/after photo records. For premium collections — a separate protocol agreed with your sommelier.
