Active Support from A to Z – You Have the Choice
Company relocations require comprehensive planning and are significantly more complex than residential moves. Whether you are moving the company within Switzerland or even establishing a branch in Germany, Austria, or another EU country, we assist you with it.
The actual work begins months before the move, as an entire company must be transferred. As a professional moving company, we not only develop a checklist for you but also support you in all practical steps of implementation.
The complexity of the move depends on the size of the company. If only a few computers need to be transported, we can handle it with the appropriate PC containers (for protection) in a day. However, an extensive commercial move may take several days, and we are here to assist you with that too.
Get Employees on Board – Corporate Relocation Works Only Together
In a traditional residential move, the whole family usually supports the relocation. However, in a corporate relocation, the planning is usually made at the management level, and employees have little say. This can quickly become a problem because the fear of the new location and the lack of interest in the move can decrease motivation. As an entrepreneur, it’s in your best interest to create a positive atmosphere in the office months before the move. You have the power to motivate employees and make the relocation appealing to them.
Integrating employees and delegating tasks have often reduced stress related to relocations. Even though we, as a moving company, are by your side, your employees can also contribute a lot! Create a checklist for all employees to ensure that no one feels excluded.
Before the Move: Checklist for Successful Arrival
As a moving company, we can handle all tasks during the move at your request. Feel free to inquire about our Full-Service Commercial Relocation! You also have the option to ensure that no important steps are forgotten months before the move by using a checklist. Here are the key points to consider:
Logistics According to Schedule – Arrive at the New Location Refreshed
While a moving company saves you a lot of time, you can still start planning in advance. About eight months before the planned company move, it’s wise to inspect the new premises regarding safety and fire protection measures and terminate the lease for the old property. Create initial lists of items to be taken from the old office and how you will set up differently in the new building.
Lease Termination – Don’t Forget
The lease for the old office building must be terminated in a timely manner, but only after the lease agreements for the new location are signed. Create a checklist and note the key dates to ensure nothing is forgotten in the end.
Setting up New Internet Connections and Electricity Contracts
Remember that an office move may also involve changing electricity providers and internet service providers. Within Switzerland, you can usually keep your existing connection. However, if your company is moving to a branch in Berlin or abroad, take care of changing providers in time to significantly reduce downtime in the new operation! Also, remember to read heating systems and inform the gas provider about the move. In many cases, readings can be done via wireless technology today, saving you considerable effort and on-site appointments.
Listing Inventory – Get Rid of Unnecessary Baggage
Get an overview of your existing inventory at least three months before the move. Often, the moving load can be reduced by only taking the most necessary furniture, documents, and equipment. For many companies, a corporate move is also a good reason to finally get rid of excess material and restructure the company. Were you planning to digitize anyway? Before loading stacks of moving boxes with filing cabinets into the van, take care of this task beforehand! Not only does this save you work, but it also significantly reduces moving costs!
