CORPORATE MOVES
While household relocation has its challenges, so does an office move. The one thing they have in common is the necessity for careful planning. One has to think about the way to organize files, store financial records, and pack the desk equipment and the furniture. Plus, the size of the office will determine the amount of work involved and the necessity to hire a professional office mover to help you with the relocation!
De-cluttering is a first stage in packing the files. Don't deposit them randomly directly on the floor, rather fill boxes and write on each of them what it contains. This could also be a good opportunity for you to put order in the paperwork: there could be business, financial or personal documents, with a higher or lower degree of importance and relevance. Put aside those that you will not longer use and either archive or send them to recycling.
Financial records occupy a special place in the preparations for the office move. Depending on the country, regulations differ in relation to such documents. Paid bills and statements should be kept for a specific time interval, usually longer than three years, while business invoices and the account records need to be stored in special locations for a longer period of time, up to ten or even fifteen years. However, this too varies according to the nature of the documents.
Besides document organization, you can refile them and use different sorting methods for a more efficient use at the new office. Then, there comes the turn of the office furniture with the drawers and the bookshelves. Make sure to remove all supplies from the drawers, with notepads and paper clips included. Just take with you those you need, and dispose of the remaining as you see fit. Under certain circumstances, the office move may involve the change of the furniture too, meaning that you'll get more functional items to replace the old ones.
The packing of the equipment will bring a set of challenges that you will have to face successfully. Thus, the packing of the computer, printer, scanner and other facilities around the office will require special measures to keep them intact during transportation and relocation. There are special packaging materials available that will help you protect the fragile surfaces that could deteriorate or get damaged because of mechanic shocks.
Other possible issues related to the office move involve the contracting of a professional office mover, the choice of the packages, usually between paper and plastic, and the details with the arrangements for the new location. Making lists of priorities and tasks will however save you from a lot of stress and mistakes.
