Many of business’ are looking at ways to save time and money on their relocation projects. Here are a few ideas that may help you in the pursuit of the money saving goal.

The most obvious and most over looked is tossing out junk from that black hole of a storage closet. Think about donating out dated manuals or books to a trade school or local school. Old computer equipment is not to be thrown in the trash but companies are set up for responsibly destroying those assets. A reminder is to destroy the hard drive on old CPU’s before turning them over to be destroyed. Worst case with large items or excess furniture is to have it hauled to the local county disposal facility. Remember this long time mover’s proverb…Chuck It, Don’t Truck.

Another savings is thru King Office Services QuickCube estimating software that helps the mover create a efficient move plan and optimized move crew size. Once your inventory of items to be moved and the building logistics are inputted, QuickCube provides the most efficient crew size saving you paying too much because of someone’s math error. Quickcube takes the guess work from estimating your relocation project providing you the best possible price.

Lastly and very important step is to set up a task list and assign duties to your move team. With some planning upfront certainly can save you once your move crew shows up and they can get right to work. Hold move meetings with your staff to explain what needs to happen to make the move efficient for everyone involved. Creating a office layout helps the movers place the furniture without taking time to ask questions or looking for someone to give direction on placement of furniture. All employees need to be prepared and packed up on move day so the move crew can get right to work saving potential hundreds of dollars not having the move crew waiting.
