How to Prepare Your Office for a Move

How to Prepare Your Office for a Move Advance planning and organization will make your company’s move decidedly more manageable. As with any multi-step endeavor, however, you may need a checklist to keep you focused and on track. Below are a few general tips that experts have found particularly useful for companies that wish to partner with a professional mover.

Consider the Mover’s Track Record

Your company’s equipment is its lifeblood, so you’ll want to hire a mover staffed by professionals experienced at handling and transporting items safely and securely. A strong rating from the Better business Bureau is a good indication that the company has provided services that have earned their customers’ satisfaction. To narrow down your choices, focus only on companies that will give you an estimate at your current office. Reputable companies know that quotes over the phone will almost always be inaccurate.

Notify Your Employees

Tell your employees about your move at least three months in advance. This will give them time to prepare for changes in their daily commute as well as inform clients and vendors. Also, as soon as you have hired a moving company, your employees should begin packing the contents of their desks in boxes and label them accordingly, which will not only simplify the movers’ job, but also make it easier to unpack items at your new office.

Let the Movers Move

In other words, trust that you have done your part, and now let the moving professionals take care of the rest. A moving company that specializes in office moves should be perfectly capable of handling the items in your office.
