Moving can be a hassle, whether you’re moving to a new home or
changing the location of your business. It takes time to pack properly, load,
unload, unpack and move in—and that’s when everything goes perfectly as
planned! Many times a problem or three arises.Luckily, there is good news if
you’re moving to a new office. Setting up can be simple with the help of office furniture
assembly services. Not only will
office furniture assembly companies take a number of obstacles off your hands,
they know a few tricks and tips to save you time and money.
Here’s how to ensure your new office set up goes smoothly:
· Plan Ahead
Take a step back before you move and evaluate your business.
Decide what needs to be moved and what can be trashed. Determine what items can
be packed up weeks in advance and what things your company uses on a day-to-day
basis. Make sure you communicate the moving date with employees at least two to
three months in advance to ensure they have time to prepare.
· Keep Track of Everything
Once you start to plan, make a list of things that need to be
moved one month, one week and one day before the move. Keep these records updated
and visible in your office. When something comes to mind, make sure to refresh
the list and keep things organized.
· Hire an Office Furniture Assembly Service
Trust me when I
tell you – no one likes furnitureaway from their families to help and neither do you. The easiest way to
take the hassle out of moving your office is to hire someone to do it. Plus, a
professional office furniture assembly service will ensure everything gets put
together correctly.
· Get Efficient
Look for ways to pack up the office that will make unpacking
much more efficient. For example, by moving the contents of cardboard boxes to
plastic storage containers you make packing and unloading twice as easy.
Additionally, if you take the time to plan and mark all containers and boxes,
the movers can help you put things exactly where they need to go.
· Embrace the Purge
Don’t be afraid to throw things away. Has an item not been used
in at least three years at your office? Sell it on eBay or throw it away.
There’s no point in hauling things to your new office that you’ll never use there,
either. Empty file cabinets, unnecessary files and outdated equipment can all
be trashed, sold or donated – rather than transported to your new building.
· Communicate with Others
Not only should you communicate with your employees about the
move, but you'll also need to give suppliers, vendors and customers a one- to
two-month heads-up about the move. The last thing you want is supplies, items
and clients still showing up at your old office.
