Have you examined the realities of what it would entail if you want to shift your offices to a new location in the future year? Some folks who have never relocated before may be unaware of how much work is involved.
When it comes to time and money, expectations do not always meet reality. So, what kinds of realities might you expect to encounter during an office relocation? Let’s take a look at what you could expect versus what you’ll actually get.
Expectations: You’ll be able to move quickly
You may feel that because you have a tiny firm, you can plan an office relocation in four or five days. In actuality, you’ll need at least two months to plan your office relocation. With so many different duties to consider and complete, procrastinating up to a week before moving day will leave you feeling overwhelmed.
Start thinking about what you’ll need to do and stick to your schedule until the day of your relocation. Plans frequently alter between the time you start your check list eight weeks before the move and the day of the move.
Hiring a Low-Cost Moving Company is a common expectation
The old cliché “you get what you pay for” is true more often than not. Your expectation may be that you can use a low-cost moving company and still receive excellent service. Unfortunately, this isn’t always the case.
Some moving firms, such as this one, do not have experienced teams, which means there is a considerable risk of furniture damage. To ensure that you receive exceptional service, you’ll need to choose the top office removalists in Perth. Referrals are the greatest bet, and they’re easy to get by.
Expectation: No need for a warehouse
Maybe you think you can move everything at once. In many circumstances, many journeys will be required. Storage may be required if you have more belongings that need to be moved. If you need to store anything before the relocation, a moving company should be able to provide you with offsite storage. This could involve keeping files separate from your office equipment.
Moving all of your data along with your furniture could put your confidential papers in jeopardy. Don’t expect that the tiny things will be totally organised during an office transfer if you don’t take additional precautions.
Expectation: You will be able to transport your IT equipment on your own
Many businesses try to save money by shifting all of their IT equipment without assistance. When it comes to larger objects, this isn’t particularly practical. Moving large goods without assistance can result in harm if you do not know how to lift properly, but it can also result in damage to expensive equipment that you cannot function without. To relocate your IT equipment, including setup, you should hire a professional moving company in Perth. Other heavy work equipment that necessitates experienced lifting and packing is the same.
Moving at the Best (and Worst) Times of the Year
It’s probably not surprising to learn that the most inconvenient time of year to move is between Memorial Day and Labor Day. After all, this is when the bulk of families with children, especially those with school-aged children, are planning to relocate (as many parents would rather their children to begin at a new school at the opening of an academic year). As a result, moving companies’ calendars tend to fill up faster during the summer months, so unless you prepare early, you may have a hard time finding moving assistance. Because of the increased demand, movers’ prices tend to be higher during peak season.
The optimum time to relocate, on the other hand, is usually during the winter months. Professional movers’ business has typically slowed at thistime of year, especially around the holidays, so finding a mover to assist you should be easier (even if you’re moving at the last minute).
Similarly to moving in the late fall and winter, you might want to consider moving in the middle of the month if possible. Because many lease rentals expire at the beginning of the month, professional movers tend to be more booked up at the beginning and end of the month due to higher demand.
This means that most renters who are starting or ending a lease prefer to move at the beginning or end of the month rather than in the midst.
Finally, while it may not be possible for everyone’s work schedules, scheduling a mid-week move rather than a weekend transfer can save money and avoid scheduling issues with a moving company. If you have a flexible employment and can take a couple of days off in the middle of the week to move, you can save a lot of money!
