A Quick and Easy Guide to Moving to a New Office Space Moving your business to a new location gives you the ability to expand your operations, reduce costs, and give your company a new look. When you decide the time is right to move, there are several factors you will want to take into account. After all, there is more to corporate relocation than moving your office furniture from one place to another. This guide will help your transition go smoothly for you, your employees, and your customers. Provide Advanced Notice Your customers need to know that you are moving. When you lock in your new location, consider an email blast or a marketing campaign to let everyone know where you will be relocating. This will ensure that you don't lose any sales during the transition. You will also need to inform your employees about the transition. Giving them detailed information about how their commutes will be impacted, any public transportation options, and directions to the new location will help your staff plan for their move to the new office. You may even want to consider adjusting the morning start times for shifts until everyone gets used to traveling to the new office. Planning the Move Your corporate relocation experts will help you arrange the dates, times, and labor needed for your move. You may want to take some time to determine which items will be moving to your new office and which items will be placed into storage. Here are a few items that you might want to consider storing: ● Old customer files ● Outdated computer equipment ● Extra office furniture Off-site storage for these items gives your new office a clean, uncluttered look. This is especially important if you are moving to a smaller location or if you are planning on investing in new office furniture for the new location. Planning for the Cost Moving your office furniture and other business supplies will obviously cost money, but with proper planning and a few cost cutting measures, your corporate relocation doesn't have to cost a fortune. Here are a few tips that will help you save money: ● Hire a reputable moving company that understands how to execute corporate moves. ● Consider donating old furniture to take advantage of the tax write-off. ● Get rid of any broken equipment or any other items that you don't need at your new location.
Simple housecleaning, a few donations, and hiring the right business moving company can help you save on your move. You'll spend less time getting settled, and you and your staff will be ready to work more quickly.
