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.
