Top Ten Moving Office Mistakes - Don't make them!
Anyone who's ever been involved in organizing an office move before knows that anything can happen and any number of things can go wrong - even when the relocation has been properly planned! But like anything else, if you know what to expect and are aware of the common mistakes that companies make when moving office, you'll be better prepared to avoid them.
Mistake # 1 - Starting the planning of your office move far too late. This causes hasty decisions, overspending and business disruption.
Mistake # 2 - Not using the right Office Relocation Professionals to carry out the relevant parts of the project (Tenant Rep Broker, Real Estate Lawyer, Office Designers, Office Moving Company).

Mistake #5 - Missing important deadlines caused by no established timeline of activities. The Moving Office Timeline will ensure you never miss a deadline!
Mistake #6 - Unorganized Office Space Plan leading to confusion when you get to the new office - including all your office furniture landing in the wrong part of the office - Chaos!
Mistake #7 - Poor communication with staff leads to negativity, low staff morale and poor productivity during and after the office move.
