In this blog entry, the professional Charleston commercial moving service experts here at NoFlex Moving will detail some useful tips for planning your retail business move.
Hire a Professional Moving Team
Not all moving teams are capable of handling the details of a retail business move. Ensure that you work with a team that has the true experience and skill necessary to handle all of your store displays, customer records, and merchandise. NoFlex Moving has vast experience with handling even the most complex commercial moves with the utmost level of care, attention, and professionalism.
Allow Professionals to Handle Packing
We recommend that you hire a professional moving team like NoFlex to handle all of your packing. We can ensure that your products arrive at your new location in perfect condition. You should not leave this up to your employees, as moving requires true professional skill. We are skilled at creating an organized moving plan for packing, transporting, storing, and securing your property in as professional a manner as possible.
Moving Schedules
We recommend creating a detailed moving schedule. Mark a day on your calendar when your new property has to be up and ready for customers, and work your way back from that date, allowing enough time for all aspects of the move to be completed. Keep organized with a master to-do list with all relevant details, and attached due-dates for all tasks.
Delegate Different Tasks
Have trusteed team members assist in organizing different aspects of your move, handling separate items on your to-do list to ensure that the bulk of the work (that is, whatever work you don’t want our professional moving team to handle) is distributed among skilled employees, rather left to a single person. Make sure not to forget to update your website and Google listings for your new location, order new stationery, and contact different contractors / plumbers / internet providers / locksmiths for your new location.
Determine the New Floor Plan
Create a dedicated space in your new property for all of your items. Familiarize yourself with the floor plan of your new property in advance, and make sure that all moving boxes are labeled with their intended room as well as affixed with a detailed list of their contents. This will help make the unpacking process much easier, and make your transition to your new commercial location much more organized.
