CREATE A TIMELINE WELL IN ADVANCE
This should include all the essential stages of your move. Make sure it is cleared with all your employees, so it won’t interrupt any work aspects. Be truthful and realistic about how much time the company will need. Start as early as possible packing and planning. Once your space or buildout is finalized, plan where everything and everyone will go. Then, you can plan out your needs for new office equipment, desks, and furniture. Give the employees a chance to also plan out and choose where their new space will be. Use the blueprints or floor plans to let the movers and your employees know where everything will go. This will make the move quicker and smoother. Winging it here is a bad idea that could take valuable work time from your employees. If they are more directly involved than their own desk items and computer, they should know early on what they need to help with.
INVEST IN THE RI T IN THE RIGHT PACKING SUPPLIES
Keeping your possessions in great condition and organized is worth the price itself in the time it will save you once you are into your new space. This can include boxes, bubble wrap, moving blankets, packing tape, clear bags, and labels. Don’t cheap out here and not have enough boxes to separate certain items. It really isn’t worth it once you are in your new office.
