In different types of companies, businesses and offices there are different issues involved in a move. Finding a Houston moving company that can provide the office moving services you need will be important. As this can be a considerable list of services, it is always recommended to start looking for a mover at least 4 months in advance of the move date.
It is a very good idea to create a general list of the types of items in the office and the services you think will be needed. While the representative from each of the office moving services you talk to may walk you through some questions to get an idea of the size and scope of the move, it is handy to have this available in advance. Remember, you will have an in-person survey of the items to be moved before you receive the bid or quote, so it doesn’t have to be itemized or specific.
Some items and specialized moving considerations should be pointed out to the movers and even discussed prior to setting the in-person meeting. These may include any of the following specialized moving requirements.
Electronics
Computers, wireless systems, telecommunications, audio visual equipment and even other types of equipment such as photocopiers, faxes and printers have to be carefully packed, wrapped and moved to avoid damage.
Some office moving services will provide assistance with networking, server racks and other types of specialized services that can help get your business operational in the new location.
Confidential Documents
Medical offices, legal offices, financial services, accountants or any other number of businesses, campuses, facilities or organizations may have confidential records that will be part of the items to move.
Verify that any commercial mover in Houston you are considering understands the regulations or standards for moving, securing and protecting those types of confidential records and documents.
