Finding the right Office Removals Company
Choosing the right Office Removals Company can be a real minefield. With so many companies to choose from and all (seemingly) offering similar services, it can be difficult knowing which one is going to be the best choice for your business relocation. These tips will help you find an Office Removals Company that provides the right service at the right cost, and provide attention to your unique relocation needs.
Removals Quotes
Make sure you get at least three estimates from three different removals companies before you finally decide on your office removals company. Remember that the highest quote may not always provide the best of service, or the service that is most compatible with your needs.
Meeting with Office Removals Companies
It is important to meet with each office removals company in person so you get a feel for them and to give you the chance to ask them any questions and discuss any special requirements. The removals company will also need to visit your premises to assess what furniture is going to be moved in order to give you a more accurate quotation.
Associations & Accreditations
A reputable office removals company will be accredited by the British Association of Removers (BAR), who set high professional standards for removal companies in order to protect companies who are moving.
Insurance
Ask about their insurance and how much limit it covers, and find out what equipment they’ll be using to move and protect your furniture.
Office Removals Quotes Inclusions
Make sure that you are clear as to exactly what is included in their quote, for example:
- Packing/Unpacking
- Dismantling or reassembly of system furniture?
- Moving inventory of all the items that are to be moved
- IT relocation (you may wish to handle this separately via an IT Relocation Company
- Can they provide crates and packing materials prior to the move?
- The total mileage between both locations
Finding the right removals company is crucial to a smooth and undisruptive transfer to the new office. Taking the time to research their reputation and capabilities is crucial, and will pay dividends in making sure that your move is executed professionally.
