Jay's Moving and Storage Calgary understands that moving your business is a daunting task. Your move is, in all likelihood, just one piece of a larger project that includes acquiring new office space, leasehold improvements, planning for staff services at the new office, physically moving your records, equipment, furniture and IT infrastructure, reconnecting components and restarting operations at the new location. It is a LOT to keep organized, especially when you need to run your core business at the same time!

A business move – whether just office or an industrial equipment relocation – carries all sorts of risk. When you start thinking about your move, you might want to consider starting with a business continuity plan that will help you think through the questions about how you would keep your business running in event of a catastrophic loss of capability or facilities. Your move could (actually!) be an opportunity to test your plan and ensure it will work when you need it!

Back to moving your office! Your plan needs to consider a lot of elements, including an inventory of everything to be moved (and not moved!), contracting a mover, arranging client communications, scheduling connection / disconnection of utilities, staff communication and orientation on the process, … and a thousand other things! Take a minute to review a more complete office move checklist (with a few suggestions on how to handle them!).

So, here’s a little about our role in your move. On moving day(s), a few of the things we can do for you include:

• Pack, remove and relocate your files
• Disassemble, pack and relocate your furniture systems
• Pack and relocate your computer equipment
• Organize cleaners for your old premises
• Set up furniture and place containers in the correct locations at the new site.
• …. Check out our office moving plan checklist!

Every move is different, and the services package that works for you will very much depend on your needs and the timeline you have to complete the move! Our experienced moving coordination team will help you avoid the common – and uncommon! – mistakes people make when relocating their business.
