Office Removals in Radcliffe
Covering Radcliffe, Whitefield, Ainsworth, Outwood, Stoneclough and Little Lever.
The world does not stop sending you things because you are moving.
Things are already on their way
Every business has something in transit at any given moment. Stationery, parts, samples, a replacement for something that broke, whatever somebody ordered a fortnight ago and has since forgotten about.
During a move those arrive at whichever address the sender has, which is almost always the old one, and quite often on the day the office is empty.
The fix is a list, made about three weeks out. Everything that arrives regularly, plus anything currently ordered. Then decide for each one whether it changes address now, changes after the move, or is fine to arrive at the old office because somebody will be there.
Three weeks is roughly right because it is long enough to change most standing arrangements and short enough that you know what is outstanding.
Somebody has to be the last address
The part most often left unassigned.
Something will arrive at the old office after you have gone. It is not a question of whether. So decide in advance who is going back, how often, and for how long.
If a colleague is taking over the space, or the building has somebody on reception, that is usually enough. If the office is simply empty and locked, you need a different answer, and it is much easier to arrange before the keys go back.
Redirecting post takes longer to set up than people expect, so it is worth starting early rather than in the last week.
And on the day itself
Two small things that save an afternoon.
- Nothing should be scheduled to arrive at either address on moving day. The old one will be empty and the new one will be full of people carrying furniture. Anything that can be moved to the day after, should be.
- Tell whoever delivers to you regularly, rather than assuming a change of address on an account updates itself. Drivers work from what is on the label.
If the timing is awkward
We have standard services and for most office moves one of them is the simplest way to book.
Some need arranging. A move where you need access to the old address for a week afterwards. Something arriving at the new office before you are properly in it. Goods needing to be held somewhere for a few days between premises.
Say so and we will tell you what can be arranged around it. The quickest route is the form. Give us the outline and we will come back to you.
Questions people ask
Something is being delivered the day we move. What do we do?
Move it if you can. If you cannot, tell us, and it gets planned around rather than colliding with the move.
Can we still get into the old office afterwards?
That depends on your arrangement rather than on us, but tell us if you need the last load to happen later than the main move and it can be looked at.
Can you hold something for a few days between offices?
Mention it at quote stage and it can be quoted as one job.
