Moving locations can be time-consuming, costly, and stressful. However, when your entire office is moving, there’s potential for stress levels to go through the roof. You’ve got your staff to consider, possibly some large or expensive equipment to move, and the impact on your business operations to take into account.

Therefore, getting organised for your office move is essential if you are to have a relatively quick and low-stress move. One of the best ways to organise for anything is to make a checklist, and an office move is no different. This article aims to help get you started in making your office relocation checklist.

Moving offices will be costly, and to avoid these expenses spiralling out of control, you should establish a relocation budget. If you have no idea about the potential cost, don’t just guess. Get in touch with Removal experts at The Whole Move Company and ask for a no-obligation quote. We'll.

Getting organised for your office move also provides you with the opportunity for some broader organisation. In the weeks preceding the move, ask your staff to throw away or recycle anything they don’t need for their jobs. You can do the same for documents, classifying them into various levels of significance. We at The Whole Move Company can help you dispose off or recycle as part of your relocation job.

Numbering each desk will make things more straightforward for the removal company. It will also speed things up at both ends, making sure the corresponding box numbers get to the right locations in the new office. Can't handle it? No problem. The Whole Move Company does that as part of each move by default.

It will take time to take down your IT infrastructure and re-establish it at the new location. To avoid too much disruption to your operations, you’ll need to develop a plan for moving your IT while still maintaining operations. The Whole Move Company expert IT team can assist you to make this transition smoother.

Like your IT, you must consider getting other communications, such as phones, established in the new location to be ready for the day you move in.

It might sound unlikely, but you might not have access to your new building at the time you want to move. There may be other users to consider during the working week, or weekend access may have to be sought. We at The Whole Move Company help you overcome any such unpleasant situations. We keep everyone in loop and keep in touch with all the parties involved to make sure access is given and any assistance is made available.

Keep your staff up-to-date with all the latest developments - try to develop some excitement and get them to engage with the moving process. Don’t forget the moving company - floor plans of both old and new locations are handy.

Boxes, padding, tape, labels, crates, and so on; the list of packing materials is long, and the quantity you need is often underestimated, particularly if you are packing yourselves. The last thing you want is to run out of materials on moving day. With The Whole Move Company, you don't have to worry about that. We use best packing materials and boxes for safe relocation of your goods.

The service you need will depend on your business, your locations, and other factors. You may opt for a full removal service or a pick-up and drip-off. Regardless of your business, The Whole Move Company can help you decide the best service for your office move.

This part of the move is the fun and exciting bit, so take the opportunity to get creative and produce a space your staff will love.

Whatever the scale of your office move, getting organised beforehand will make it go smoother. Hopefully, this office relocation checklist will help make your move more manageable and less stressful. For any further assistance and seamless office move, contact expert team of The Whole Move Company.
