Moving Costs & Downtime - What To Expect

The importance of utilizing a professional relocation service cannot be underestimated. If you are a big business or a small company, you will always find that partnering with a relocation company will:

 

  • be of great value to you 

  • provide great insight and experience

  • ensure that your offices are up and running on-time

 

Do you know that you must reserve the elevator with the property manager and utilize building protection for floors, doors and hallways? Your firm needs adequate workers comp and liability insurance that the building manager requires? Don't risk the health of your staff members and possibly lose their production due to injury. Sure, you can always find a cheaper alternative but saving money when moving your office is not a gamble worth taking.

It may not always make sense to move all of furniture. Below are different cost scenarios based on your office size. It may make sense to acquire new/used furniture and simply move your contents if the current furniture is less than desirable or is not conducive to your business anymore. Either way, remember that the space you are vacating most likely will need to be cleared of old furniture, as demanded by the Building Owner.
