As a business owner or facility manager, you probably associate the concept of “bigger and better” with the idea of moving your business to a new location. But sometimes, even for companies that are doing just fine financially, opting for a smaller location offers even more benefits as far as streamlining, simplifying, and cutting operating costs.
Whether you’re moving into your family’s dream home, downsizing, or relocating your growing business, across the country or just across town, moving is both exciting and stressful. With the right preparation and professional help, it can be a wonderful experience. But some common mishaps can make an already difficult experience even worse.
If you spent the winter debating whether or not it’s time to move, spring is the season to get serious. Before you know it, you’ll be dedicating your weekends to driving around the area’s most desirable neighborhoods in search of your next home.
Moving season is upon us. Whether you’re planning your first move or your fifth, you probably have plenty of questions about how to approach the process.

If you partner with a moving company for your home or office relocation, you entrust that company with valuable, sometimes irreplaceable, parts of your life. Photographs, antiques, jewelry, electronics and digital data represent just a few of the items a moving company might be asked to carefully package and move on your behalf.
Whether you are relocating down the street or across the country, moving is often a stressful and time-consuming process. From preparing your family and friends to selecting the right moving company, planning for a move starts well before the packing and transportation begins.
Many would agree that moving is one of the more stressful things in life. Sorting through all your worldly items, packing them in boxes, transporting them — and yourself — to a completely new place is hard work. Add in the additional stressor of choosing a reliable moving company to handle a lot of that labor for you, and the stress can easily turn into anxiety.
The time has come to move your business. Perhaps your company has been so successful that it has outgrown your current space, or maybe it’s downsizing to a space better suited for a nimble team.
Another reason could be that the founder seeks greater business opportunities in a different state, and has decided to transplant the headquarters entirely. Or maybe it’s just a matter of chasing better rent or real estate prices.
If you’ve ever had to move to a new home, then you know it can be a big job. No matter the final destination, packing up your personal belongings, putting everything in boxes, moving everything out, and transporting your items to a new home can be exhilarating—but it can also be stressful, time-consuming, and just plain hard work.
