Moving office spaces is always a challenge that requires a lot of planning. But moving during the holiday season adds an extra element to the office moving process that can create a lot of pressure. From the regular planning considerations to the busyness that comes along with the holiday season, DLO Move Support Services in Vancouver can efficiently and professionally complete your move during the holidays while minimizing disruptions to your work schedule.
Here are some important things to consider when it comes to moving your Vancouver office during the holiday season.
Check your Building Requirements before the office move
Check the building requirements on both your current and your new building. Many buildings have holiday hours and policies that can affect the status of your move. Check in with the building’s management and ensure that all the proper paperwork is in place before your move. Relay this information, and any floor plans or building accommodations, to your corporate office movers so that they can take the necessary steps to ensure a smooth moving process.
Think About Your Employees before you move offices
Will you have fewer employees around during the holiday season? On one hand, this means less hands to help with the moving process; on the other hand, your corporate office movers may be able to work more efficiently when there are fewer people in your office space. Your employees won’t have to deal with the frustrations of being side-tracked from their usual tasks or needing items that are already packed on a moving truck – they can just report to the new office once the holiday, and the move, are done. If you know an employee will be gone for the holidays, you may even want to think ahead and get them to pack up their office supplies and equipment so that a small portion of the packing process can be completed before your moving day even comes!
The Holidays May Provide some Extra Time for Office Moving Tasks
While retail and sales industries are usually extremely busy during the holiday season, if you’re not in one of these business areas you might find that a lot of your clients are taking time off for the holidays. This little bit of down time, where you know that you aren’t needed to complete or start any projects, may be the perfect time to do some of the smaller, but necessary, pre or post-moving tasks like inventory and accounting without disrupting your regular work flow.
