Guide to Packing up your Office
Office Packing Guide
Packing up your office might sound like a nightmare but it needs to be done (!) so this Office Packing Guide will help you organize a systematic packing system that works and enables your office move day to go smoothly.
Packing Professionals
It's never a good idea to pack your office up yourself. Apart from it taking up too much valuable time and a distraction from your day-to-day duties, it's also not a good idea for you to be lifting heavy boxes where you may not be insured against injury. The most efficient way to ensure packing is done correctly is to hire an Office Moving Company to do the packing for you.
Labeling
One of the most important things to remember when packing up your office is the need for clear labeling on every box. Your Office Moving Company will discuss a suitable color coding system to ensure that each box lands in its correct location at the new office.
New Office Space Plan
Make sure your Office Moving Company has a copy of your new office space plan so they know where boxes are to be unloaded and ensure that items are unpacked in their correct location. This will minimize any chaos on moving day and get your business back up and running as fast as possible.
Get Staff to Help
Ask staff to pack up their personal desk items into crates and label accordingly. Staff can also help to throw away garbage so you take the minimum amount of stuff with you to the new office.
IT Equipment
To ensure your computers and phones are connected and working properly in the new office, it's best to hire an IT Relocation Company to carry out this complex task. Many companies office moves fall short during an IT Relocation because they have not hired the right professionals to relocate their business critical equipment.
Finally, use this Office Moving Checklist to make sure you have all bases covered and to ensure your office move day goes like clockwork.
