How to Prepare For An Office Move

June 4, 2019 By A Very Moving Blog

Organising an office move takes on of a lot more stress than a residential move for a business owner or executive.

In a decision making position, it’s bittersweet, upsizing. You need to limit the amount of time your company is not able to operate.

When you have decided to take your business to new lengths, prepare yourself in advance to limit risk. Take our professional advice to make your business move easier!

Plan Plan Plan:

As early as possible, start to develop a plan to divert disruption to your organisation’s operations. We suggest to meet with fellow decision makers and organise what needs to be coordinated and physically moved.

In This Plan Include:

  • Product and inventory of what needs to be moved
  • Important paperwork
  • Cubicle panels
  • Electronics. Upgrade?
  • What moving company you are going to use
  • What employees will do on moving day

Be sure to notify your building owner, clients, and vendors of your change of address and create a timeline. A timeline will help you understand if there is any overlap where you can access both your old and new location if you have to move on a business day and keeps your team up with daily tasks.

Track Your Inventory In a Spreadsheet

Once you have a clear idea of what has to be moved, it will be easier to judge how much packing material you need and how large of a crew you need to arrange for. Though, TWO MEN AND A TRUCK® does have moving consultants come to your location for free and provide an estimate and ETA.
