Hiring a moving company can alleviate many of these worries and more, especially if you’re hiring movers that have experience with office moves.

Try to get hold of the blueprints for your new building and locate all of the phone connection points, plug sockets and more so that you can plan the layout of your new office before you and your office equipment and furniture get there. Doing this means that you won’t have to worry about where to put your furniture and you can get your new office into shape and ready for unpacking straight away!5)    What to avoid when hiring a removal company.If you’ve decided to hire a relocation company for your office move then make sure that you research your chosen company properly. Check online for customer reviews and complaints, but don’t just trust what’s on the company’s website as these reviews could be false. Check other review websites for more accurate information, and try to avoid companies that offer over-the-phone or website-generated price quotes. These can often be inaccurate and misleading, so instead ask for the company to review your office in person!
