When you first approach a removal company to perform an office removal, you need to tell them exactly what you have in mind. This way, they don’t have to guess what you want them to do. You also need to be very clear what part of the work you will be doing. If you are packing the boxes, make sure the removal company knows that. If you are packing some of the items and you want them to pack others, again be very clear with your instructions. It is very easy to gesture about a room and say, all of this goes. Then you get the written estimate and say, oh but I’m going this part. They may have to re-estimate the job which probably will not make them very happy.
Since you are looking at a short local office removal you may also consider hiring a smaller van with a driver who will also load the van. If the office is a smaller office and is only moving a block or two, a smaller van is an easy way to get things moved over several days. If the office has to stay open during the move and it is a short move then you could sort out the office and put items that will not be used for a couple of days in a separate place. Then the office removal company can start to move those items and get them set up in the correct places. Then over the weekend when the office is closed, the office removal company can complete the move.
Don’t forget, a moving company may have stated work hours where they move goods for the normal moving charge. If you request they perform their services before a certain time or after a certain time they may impose an overtime charge to the normal hourly charge. This might also apply to a weekend move. Or it could be an assessed charge if they have to wait for you for a certain period of time. So if you are planning this short distance office move and don’t want to waste company money, then you should do some careful planning.
Generally a moving company does not do weekend moves however a small van with a driver may be more flexible. Also there are some companies that seek office removals because there is generally less hassle from the office staff. A typical office will not have fragile furniture and dishes and things like that. So the move is rather straight forward. They can simply pack the boxes, dismantle the office furniture and equipment and perform the move.
Also plan for an extra cost if they have to use an elevator or lift or stairs to complete the pick up or delivery of the office they will make an additional charge. This will be computed based on where the elevator is in relationship to the final destination. Or the number of flights of stairs and whether they are inside or outside steps.
