Removals are very hectic and long processes to perform. It is one of the biggest days of one's life and its stress can be compared to that of the stress of getting married or getting divorced. The process starts from the very first day when you plan to sell out your property or when you opt to go for a new location. It continues until you are well settled in your new home and unpack all your stuff. Obviously, this long process also comes with a lot of stress. Always remember that if you are going to plan well then this stress can be converted into a fun. Try to keep yourself prepared enough that this journey might become a fun filled and full of excitement roller coaster ride. Make it happen in such a way that as soon as you jump into your car then you stop thinking about the old life and just step into your new one. People just feel amazed that this can happen but really it can. The question is how to get prepared for the removal. One of the simplest ways is to hire a trustworthy removal company for your help. Even after hiring professional help, there are many things that you can do in order to keep things simpler and smoother for you. Following are few tips that can help you in making your experience a memorable one.

Prepare the stuff that will go with you in your car. This might sound odd but it really matters a lot. People do not take it seriously as they consider it an eleventh hour's job. But this is not true. It is better to be prepared in advance than to regret later. Anything that is done at the last hour is full of flaws. At the last minute there are chances that you might get panicked and can forget many little things. Moving house is not easy and you will definitely take few days in your new house to get well settled. It is better that you must prepare a bag that can be kept with you while moving home. You can keep all the urgently required belongings in that bag. Prepare the bag few days ahead of moving and then keep it in some room like the living room. On the day of removal, you can put this bag in your car in the early morning to get yourself ready. Make sure that your important documents and other valuables like gadgets and expensive jewellry items are kept in this bag. You can look for the checklist of these urgently required items on the internet for help. 

The day of moving house can be very much risky in terms of security. This is because a number of people (including removal company staff) will be entering and exiting. You need to keep an eye over the people who are working and you should not let anyone enter into the house who does not look familiar to you. Keeping this check is very necessary in order to avoid any kind of incident. For this, you need to stay alert and present at the entrance all the time until the loading or unloading of your items is done.

Ask your friends or family members to be there as they can help you a lot. You can assign them any duty in order to keep yourself light and stress free. The friends and family members can be invaluable on this day.

Relocating your Office - Good or Bad for Your Business

Amazon, Apple, Google – these are just a few names of gigantic businesses which were born as garage startups. Moving office is something common. Many companies undertake it when they need to grow and expand and the old office appears to be too small and outdated for the purpose. The process of moving, however, is not always smooth and easy. Here are some of the challenges that businesses face during relocation. 
Picture
1. Choosing the right location
Location matters. In fact, it is one of the most important items on the business’ moving checklist. A good location is likely to attract new customers, cut transportation expenses and increase employee satisfaction. However, it could also result in changing partners, contracts and utility providers. Each manager should consider these possibilities in advance in order to avoid unnecessary confusion, stress, and losses.

2. Deciding on an office size
If a business wants to grow, it would probably need a bigger office.  All the new hires, conference rooms and technology would require enough space. However, the company should make sure that they can afford it. A larger office with a more central location is likely to cost a lot. Everybody dreams to work in a spacious and modern building, but no one wants to go bankrupt there.
​
3. The costs of moving office
Packing and moving everything you have in the office is not an easy task. You might need to relocate heavy technology, equipment, furniture and, of course, tons of documentation. Few people possess their own van, so you might need to hire a man and a van for the transportation. Another thing you could do is to trust a professional moving company. It will help you with everything – from packing to delivering and unpacking your belongings. However, you need to consider the cost of these removal services and whether you can afford it.

4. Administrative  changes
As you are moving the business to a new location, you also need to change your address and notify your clients. Make sure you have paid all the necessary bills and you have rearranged your contracts with utility providers. Keep in mind that the new address should now appear on all your important documentation, business cards and promotional materials. This is also related to new expenses.

5. Let everybody know you are moving
Some of your customers might be disappointed that the office is moving. Perhaps the previous location was more convenient for them. Perhaps they were just used to it. The truth is that people often resist change. Notifying your customers that you are moving is not enough. You need to make them feel that you are doing it to provide them with better products and services. You can do that by organizing a reception in the new building. Invite all your customers, partners and employees. Make them feel special. Celebrate the new office, explore the place together.  That will be one great way to move in and start a new era in your business.
​
If you find a way to overcome these challenges, moving to a new office will present you with numerous benefits for your business.  “If you can dream it, you can do it” Walt Disney said. His small garage film studio changed numerous locations, before it became one of the world’s greatest media conglomerates.
