Does Your Company Need Relocating

Relocating the contents of your family home, even with just a few rooms and accumulated possessions, is said to be one of the most stressful things you can do. Imagine what the stress factor is like when moving your entire business, especially if it's a London removal!

Office moves can make or break a company and its staff. But they can be a blessing in disguise (albeit sometimes very heavily disguised), presenting the perfect opportunity to rethink some operational and organisational aspects of your business.The planning for an office move is the perfect time to integrate thoughts on how to make some cost savings, consolidate resources, or use new technology to minimise the clutter you've got to move and to improve future working practices.Ask yourself whether you really need to move.

When it comes to London removals, it may make more sense to consider better ways of using your current property.Small companies often grow in an unplanned manner which means that space isn't always used to its best effect anyway.Consider getting in a professional to advise you on the best ways to use the space you already own.You could consider bringing in flexible working hours, "hot-desking" practices or home working policies that reduce the amount of space required for a fixed number of people.Another way to improve the way you use your space is to consider business storage for equipment and furniture that you don't need, but may do in the future.

However, if your staff are falling over each other and none of the above options are viable, you need to start researching into office removals. Ideally, office moves should be on the agenda before you reach that point and when you plan to move from your original offices should form part of your initial business plan.Even if that involves using simple triggers like number of staff or turnover, you should begin planning the actual move as soon as possible.Your selected removal company should survey your new offices before the move and be ready to assist in planning and co-ordination right through to the unpacking of the last box.
