Moving Your Office

Moving your office can be an overwhelming thing. So, where do you even start? The first thing you should do is communicate with your employees. Make sure they know what the game plan is, where you are moving to and what the timeline will be. If everyone is aware of what is happening you can get through the move together. When it gets closer to approaching the actual move it can be easy to just consult your management team. However, if every department is involved you can get feedback from each of them, find out what is important to them and what will make the move less stressful for all involved. If you get all departments involved then everyone will know what the goals are. One goal for businesses is to avoid downtime when moving. Some businesses do this by moving on the weekend, but this may not work for all businesses. It’s key to communicate with your employees about the move, maybe they can work remotely for a period of time. But, remember that your businesses servers and phones will be down for some time. Picking the right time of day for your business is key. Make sure your team is on board with your plan and that you convey to your customers your plan as well. When choosing a mover for your business be selective. The movers need to understand your needs and be there for your business. They should be a part of your pre-move meetings and be in talks with your business during the planning process. The moving company should understand any other challenges your business will face, besides just moving the equipment. Moving your office can be a big undertaking, but with the help of a reliable moving company, such as Humboldt Storage & Moving your move can be stress free.
