Are you about to move offices for the first time? Maybe this isn’t your first time, but you still don’t quite have a handle on all things office move related. If you’re feeling stuck or need some extra guidance, here are DLO Move Support Services Ltd.’s best moving tips for 2022!
Tip #1 – Create an office move checklist
The last thing you need when you’re moving offices is to be all over the place without any structure. Having a checklist will keep you and your team organized as you can visually see how much progress you have made. Not to mention the satisfaction you will receive once you check another thing off the list!
Tip #2 – Move the essential items to your new office first
When you first begin packing up your old office, try to divide all the items into either essential or non-essential items. This will help you when it comes to prioritizing what equipment or furniture needs to arrive at the new office first. Depending on how much time you have to move offices, you will feel relieved to know all the important items are at the new office and ready to use.
Tip #3 – Delegate tasks to reduce workload during office move
If this is your office move then we know for a fact that you already have a lot of things on your mind. If you have a team or a group of people that are willing and ready to help you, use their help! By delegating tasks to other members of the team, you will reduce your own workload and not be stressed out over too many tasks.
Tip #4 – Make sure the storage shelves & cabinets are set up in the new office
This may seem like an unimportant tip upon first glance, but is actually crucial once you and your team begin unpacking boxes at the new office. The opened boxes will most likely include items that need to be stored away in something, such as a filing cabinet or on a shelf. Once the furniture is set up, it will ease the unpacking process.
Tip #5 – Seek assistance from an office moving company
