2.

Appoint an office removals manager

An Office Relocation is a major task. Appoint a project manager to create a plan for the move and be a single point of contact, for your office relocation specialists and your employees.

Your office removal manager is responsible for planning and executing the entire move.

3.

De-clutter your current office contents

Your office relocation experts may be able to provide secure storage facilities. The Moving Man have self-storage units available. This offers you the opportunity to declutter your office.

  • Furniture – Little used furniture and equipment could be packed and moved to a storage facility to help reduce disruption on moving day
  • Stock – supplies or seasonal stock could be moved to storage until needed, providing you with more space.
  • Documents – Your relocation specialists may suggest you move rarely-used documentation to a secure storage facility to free up valuable space.
4.

Plan your move with an office inventory list

Your aim is to make the move as stress-free and efficient as you can, to minimise disruption to your business.

This entails emptying your current premises, inside and out, of anything belonging to or anybody employed by your business.

Your belongings must be packed, ready for the move, transported to your new premises, unpacked and set up, ready to be used as soon as possible.

Begin by making a list of everything on the premises. All of the items on your office inventory list will have to be moved to storage or packed and relocated to your new premises. This list will form the basis for your office move project plan.

5.

Communicate your office move project

People generally don’t like change. Arrange a trip to the new location for your workers. Show them where they will be working and introduce them to the neighbours. They will appreciate the chance to check out transport options, like car parks and train stations, plus spots for coffee, lunch, etc.

Your staff should understand where and when they begin work at the new location. They will need to know where they will work in the new premises and they will expect any current business furniture and equipment to be present and ready to be used when they first arrive at their new workplace.

6.

Label everything to be included in your commercial removals

You will have a list of everything to be moved. As items are packed, label any moving crates with details of the contents and planned location at your new premises.

Involve staff in the move. Provide them each with an individual moving crate, labelled with their name, to pack any items to be moved from their desk or personal workspace.

Labelling your moving crates will make unpacking simpler and ensure everything is where it is needed to recommence work as soon as possible.
