Tips to Make Your Business Move Less Costly

Junk Hauling For A Relocating Business

Considering relocating your business somewhere else in Orange County? Expansion or better location? Congratulations! OC Junk Hauling stands ready to help with any office furniture you don’t take with you. Oh, you are taking it all? Are you sure that is wise?

Consider this: just like the juggler spinning the dishes, the more moving pieces you have, the more labor will be needed to get the job done. And since moving an office isn’t a one-person project, the more you must transport, the more it will cost you.

Ever wonder why retail stores slash prices before a move? To be nice to customers? Well, yes. But, also so they don’t need to spend money on expendable items that could instead generate income.

How big an office do you have?

To begin with, has the buzz word “paperless” avoided your filing system? Do you have files from 30 years ago? And your cabinets are just as old? Consider purging paperwork before the move and you might not need to pay for cabinets to go across the old hall, down the old steps, across the parking lot to the truck, then across the new parking lot, up the new steps and across the new hall.

Office moves based on the truckload average $500-$1,500 per load depending on the time it takes to load, the difficulty and the number of movers. Average truck rates are around $100 per hour per truck with three movers.

• 1,500 square-foot office will range from $750-$4,500, depending on the amount of materials moved.
• 3,000 square-foot office will range from $1,500 to $9,000 depending on not only the amount of materials but the extra furniture currently filling that space
• 10,000 square-foot office will start in the $5,000 range and could reach $30,000 for companies with numerous employee workstations that need to be dismantled, moved and then put together again. As they say, time is money.

On the other hand, if it doesn’t disrupt operations, you could ask your office staff to pack up their own work areas during business hours. This will help you to avoid paying a crew to pack up your office outside of business hours ($.75 per square foot for packing your office).
