Things to Consider During an Office Relocation


Relocating your office can be a difficult project to manage, with a number of factors to consider. Below we’ve listed several factors that are important to keep in mind, and why they are important.         

What impact will the move have upon the budget?

It is always important to consider the financial implications of engaging services. Set a budget and seek quotes from contractors.

Be sure when considering quotes that the expense of the move is not limited to the removalist themselves, but consider also the time of your staff.

Time is money and hiring a quality removalist who can efficiently move your office can save you greater expense, hassle and time.       

How will productivity be affected?

Moving can be time consuming, which could impact upon the usual operations of the business. Consider the availability of the removalist, should they be available outside of business hours, such as during the weekend, this can dramatically minimise disruption to the business.  

How large is the move? Does the removalist have the capability to successfully complete the move?

You don’t have to be a large organisation to have a large volume of equipment, furniture and documents to transport! A quality removalist will have the ability to assess your needs and allocate the vehicle, staff and equipment necessary to effectively and efficiently complete the move.    

Is the removalist qualified and experienced?

Look to see that the Melbourne based removalist is qualified to NRA standards.

Don’t hesitate to seek the opinion of past clients to learn how their experience was. Experienced removalists should have a number of happy past clients who have provided feedback on their service.   

How to transport valuable and fragile items

In an office there is a great number of bulky, heavy and valuable assets that require care when moving. Professional qualified removalists have the equipment and experience necessary to ensure these are safely transported.    

Is the move covered by insurance?

All quality removalists will have an insurance policy covering the move of your office. Be sure to check that this is the case, as whilst unlikely, accidents can happen, and it is important to ensure that a safety net is in place.
