If you’re getting ready to move your business, don’t wait until the last minute to prepare. Relocating can quickly turn into a logistical nightmare—but the right plan can turn any move into a seamless transition. Discover a strategy that works for you and your team to create a smooth and successful moving experience.
Plan Ahead
From packing up desks to transporting equipment, your business can become too chaotic to get work done efficiently. Planning at least six months in advance will keep your team on track and your floor space clear. Begin by creating an organized, yet realistic timeline, that includes your mandatory moving date. This will help you determine how to prioritize task deadlines, allocate resources, and address potential conflicts.
Determine Your Budget
You should also establish an accurate budget to set aside the correct moving funds. This budget should include purchasing new furniture and setting up IT and equipment. One of the most important costs you’ll budget for is hiring professional commercial movers. Look for movers that provide services that will benefit you and your team, such as full-service packing, furniture installation, or short-term storage.
Organize Your Current Space
Make sure your business is ready to move by organizing and decluttering your current space. Start by taking inventory of all items that will be moved or discarded. Then, declutter unnecessary, broken, or outdated supplies. This will help you plan for purchasing new equipment and scheduling the removal of items you don’t want. Make sure to label any items that are moving with their new destinations.
Prep Your New Floor Space
Preparing your space in advance will allow you to avoid the disorganization and hassle of misplaced items or unnecessary downtime. You can prep your new space by creating a floor plan and scheduling a walk-through. Take feedback from employees to ensure the new layout will be as effective as possible. After you move, make sure to test all equipment and computers before opening your doors for full operation.
