What You Need to Know About Moving Offices

Looking to make a move to a new office? We're here to help!


There are a number of factors to consider when planning a commercial office move. Here are answers to some frequently asked questions about what you need to know about moving offices.


  • How much notice should I give my landlord?

    Typically, you will need to give your landlord at least 30 days' notice before you move out of your office space. This will give them enough time to find a new tenant and make any necessary repairs or changes to the property.


    If you don't give your landlord enough notice, you may be responsible for paying rent for the remainder of your lease term. Additionally, you may be required to pay a penalty fee.

  • How should I go about finding a new office space?

    There are a few things you should keep in mind when searching for a new office space. First, consider the size of your company and how much space you will need. You should also think about the location and whether you want to be in a downtown area or a suburban area. 

  • How can I make sure the move goes smoothly?

    There are a few things you can do to ensure that your office move goes smoothly. 


    First, start planning early and give yourself plenty of time to find a new space and pack up your old one. 


    Second, hire professional movers like our team at Avant-Garde Moving who are experienced in office moves. 


    And finally, make sure to communicate with your employees throughout the process so that everyone is on the same page.

  • How can I minimize downtime during the move?

    There are a few things you can do to minimize disruptions during your office move. We recommend planning the move for a weekend or other time when business is typically slow. It is also a good idea to pack up non-essential items first so that you can continue working with minimal disruptions. Most importantly, always have a backup plan in place in case something goes wrong- like renting temporary office space just in case your new office isn't ready on time.

Your Commercial Moving Checklist

Moving your office can be a daunting task. Even with the help of Avant-Garde Moving, there are endless details to take care of and it's easy to overlook something important in all the chaos. Here's your office moving checklist to get you started.

  • Hire a Professional Mover

    At Avant-Garde, we have all the supplies and expertise necessary to get your office moved quickly and efficiently.

  • Create a Floor Plan

    Once you have your new office space rented and ready to go, it's time to start planning how you're going to set everything up. Creating a floor plan will help you visualize the layout and figure out where everything needs to go when the movers arrive with your belongings. This is especially important if you have a lot of large furniture or equipment. You don't want to get everything moved in only to realize that it doesn't fit the way you wanted it to! 


    *With our packing / unpacking services and fully systematized item labeling process, the Avant-Garde Moving team will  carefully and efficiently rebuild your new office following the designated floor plan. 

  • Connect Services at New Location

    Be sure to contact your local utility companies and arrange to have your services disconnected at your old office and reconnected at your new office. Then, notify your landlord or property management company of your move-out date, and schedule a walk-through of the space to ensure that you will be refunded your security deposit.

  • Notify Your Customers

    Once you have a solid plan in place, it's time to let your customers know about the impending move. Send out an email blast or post a notice on your website and social media accounts announcing the move and giving your new address and contact information. Make sure you include the date of the move so that customers know when to expect disruptions in service. 

  • Pack Up Electronics

    When packing up electronics, there are a few things you need to keep in mind. First and foremost, be sure to unplug everything and wrap cords individually so they don't get tangled. You should also consider storing any small items or detachable parts in plastic bags so they don't get lost. Finally, if possible, pack electronics in their original boxes with padding to prevent damage during transit.

COI (Certificate of Insurance)

If you’re moving in or out of the apartment building, your building may require your moving company to submit a Certificate of Insurance (COI) before the movers can even step inside it. 


COI legacy protects buildings in case of any damages and building management often requires documentation and proof of insurance to ensure moving company is properly covered.


COI is included in our rates and all you have to do is send us a sample/coi requirements from the building management.
