If you have moved house you will understand how much planning and preparation is involved. So you can imagine what it takes to move an entire office. That is why it is essential to find the best office movers and select the right office relocation company for your next move.
On average office removals are bigger projects and a lot more planning is involved. With Office removals, there is a lot more work involved than house moves as there’s a lot to take care of, special equipment and technology that needs moving along with all the other usuals. That means you can’t afford any lost time on relocation if your business depends upon it!
To avoid the disruption that moving office causes, it is important to plan ahead and make sure everything goes as smoothly. It maybe due to the fact the your business is expanding and you require bigger property or the lease on your current office is due to expire. Either way you need to choose the right office relocation company to help you achieve this.

Every office move is completely different. This all varies such as desks, archive boxes, filing cabinets, storage units, IT equipment, specialist equipment. Office removals are a very specialist business and cost should never be the only consideration.

Office Movers

How do you Relocate an Office?
Plan Ahead

Have an Agenda for your Office Move
Its also a good idea to have an agenda for your removal project. Try to create timelines that have to be completed by certain dates prior to your move. You can assign team members certain agendas to be completed by certain dates. This will help you to estimate if you are on track for your moving day.
Office Relocation Plan?
At this stage you should have chosen your removal company from the surveys and quotes provided. You will also have an idea of the best solution to complete your move.
Speak to your removal team again to finalize plans and that everything is in place for moving day. Your removal team will be assisting you throughout your office relocation ensuring your project will run fluently.
Create an Office Relocation List
Create a checklist of your items you require moving. Its a good idea to state on the checklist which room they are going to be going to in the new office. Assign the checklists to the team members of each department. This will maintain your organised plans. The checklists can also be given to the removal team on moving day so that everyone is on the same page.
Let Everyone Know About Your Move
Once you have set a date for your move day make sure you let everyone know. Inform your employees about the move and the plans that will be happening throughout the move.
Assign a member of each department as the go-to contact. This person can liaise with the removal team and make everything run according to plan.
Office Relocation Day
Moving day is finally here. Its all systems go. Make sure your team members are on time and they know what to bring, where its going and when.

They provide the kind of support and skills that you need when moving home. If you want a professional, practical and efficient service I would definitely recommend Darren and his team from Green4Logistics.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.Julia Ellis25/10/2024I have recently had the pleasure of meeting with Darren and Kick during my recent house move, and what a treat they were !! From the very outset and my conversations with Darren, I found him to be really friendly and helpful. He was easily contactable which again was really helpful as the last thing that you want to do is have to chase your movers. On the day of the big move Darren said Kick arrived on time and set to work and they just didn’t stop; they worked like absolute trojans. Despite the huge volume of boxes/items to be moved, they were both so pleasant and accommodating, enjoying a bit of friendly banter along the way, which really helped. They did a sterling job with a smile on their faces and they really did help to make the day as pleasurable as it could be.I would absolutely recommend their services without any doubt. I booked their services based on their reviews and can now see why they are so deserving of such great reviews. Look no further, you won’t be disappointed.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.Andy Lee24/10/2024Just moved from Bramhall to Cheadle-Hulme and used these guys again, three years after moving from Kent to the north. I really can't recommend them highly enough, still (see previous review!). Not the cheapest quote but far from the most expensive (and who wants to trust your move with the cheapest anyway?). They are the most jolliest, easy-going, helpful people. On time, no breakages and super-helpful in every way. They made the potentially stressful move day a breeze with their humour and professionalism. Trust your next move with these guys. Just make sure you have plenty of tea bags and cookies. They like tea and cookies.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.Samantha Bishop30/09/2024Excellent, caring, supportive, considerate, professional.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.Naomi Savage27/09/2024Really helpful company, fast replies, good value for money, friendly removers who were careful with all my furniture, and they only charged a little more for an extra van that was needed on the moving day. I would definitely recommend this company.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.Clair Holland15/09/2024I would not hesitate to use Darren and his colleague from Green4Logistics again. They safely collected and delivered a set of six quite precious dining chairs for us from Oxford. They liaised with the seller and myself, keeping me informed and reassured. Thanks chaps.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.John Gale19/08/2024We have moved from Meir Heath to Northern Lincolnshire in the last few days. We found Green 4 Logistics on line and were delighted with the service they offered and their attention to detail. Very decent initial quote which was exactly the same at the end. Great guys who unplumbed our washing machine to move but when we got to the new property found the drain clogged. No problem for these guys, sorted within minutes and even cleaned it out. Having had to move 5 times in 6 years these people are “The Business”. Well pleased.
