**Note:** This option is now part of the **Site Migration** feature.

For instructions on moving a site to a different server / bench, see the documentation : [https://docs.frappe.io/cloud/site/site-migrations/move-site-to-different-server-or-bench](https://docs.frappe.io/cloud/site/site-migrations/move-site-to-different-server-or-bench)

> If you want to move to a dedicated server refer [Move site across server](https://frappecloud.com/docs/sites/move-site-across-server)
>
> **Note:** If you need to move to a bench on another server, you need to move the current bench [to the server](https://frappecloud.com/docs/sites/move-site-across-server) first, and after that is done, do **Change bench** by following this doc.

You can directly schedule Site Migration to a private bench from a site's dashboard.

1. To change your site to a private bench, go to your site Dashboard>Actions>Change Bench
