You
and your employees put in at least forty hours each
week in your office, so it should be a place that is practical and congenial.
Your entire business depends
upon what happens within those offices.
With that at the front of your mind, you might be thinking
about an office relocation. There are a lot of rationales
to do so:
- You
have outgrown your
current office in Atlanta. Your workers
need a little breathing room! As you grow
and hire more people, you require more
office space to house them. (Nobody would like to share a desk or go to the break
room only to figure out there is no break room.)
- You
prefer your warehouse and office
to be very close. If you have
a warehouse of inventory, it may be more
productive to locate your office closeby so you don't have to have such a commute.
- You
need to increase your visibility. Some businesses gain
when potential patrons can see
your sign every day and gain easy access to your front door. If
this is you, it is time to get
out of that sixth floor office or hidden alley office and get into the limelight.
- A
different location makes more sense. Maybe your current
spot was perfect for opening
your business, but now it's time to move
to a place that's more convenient
for your clients, has more parking, or is simply more luxurious.
- You
need space for a new department. An office
relocation may be as simple
as moving one set of employees into a
new space in the same building or complex.
Still, no matter how easy the move
might seem, there's a lot to think
about, which is why it is a good idea to find
a professional moving company that can handle your office move from Point A to Point B.
- Disassembling
and Reassembling Furniture: There aren't very many
office conference tables that will fit
through a door as a single piece
(and seriously, would you want to carry it even if it did?).
Taking apart furniture and putting
it back together may be time-consuming
and delicate: you must watch out to lose a nut! You and your
employees can make better use of your time.
- Moving
Records and Files: You have a
system, and you should be able to commence where you ended when you're
in your new office. Prior to hiring
a professional mover, double check that they are capable of maintaining the organization and safeguarding
the privacy of the people whose files are being moved.
- Moving
IT Systems:
A few computers is one thing; an entire
network of computers, printers and more is
another. Besides, even with a single
tablet, you should make sure it is correctly packaged
and padded to circumvent issues in
transit. When you arrive, you want to feel at ease that
your system can be reinstalled smoothly and, of
course, correctly.
- Moving
Heavy Equipment: Depending upon your
business, you might have big,
oddly shaped pieces of pricey
equipment that need to make the move, too.
How are you going to move
that thing? How will you secure it? That
is what pros do best.
- Keeping
to a Timeline: When your office is being
moved, it's difficult to keep up with work, which is why it's imperative
for an office relocation to happen flawlessly.
