Two Months Before The Move

Two months before moving your business is a key time. This is the time to pick dates, contact utilities and begin networking with other professionals in your new location. This is also the time to start picking who will make your company signs and hire a cleaning company.

Checklist

  • Pick the exact moving day and give written notice to your landlord
  • Contact the phone company to schedule disconnect and connect dates.  Make sure all phone book listings and ads reflect your new address and phone number.
  • Locate other professionals in the area and begin networking
  • Shop for a bank and property insurance. Ask about coverage for company cars.
  • Order new office signs.  Begin planning outdoor and indoor plant landscaping.
  • Hire a cleaning company and hold a moving sale. Rent a storage locker for items you need but won’t use before the move.
  • Keep employees informed and motivated. Schedule a going-away party.
  • Write press releases and other promotions announcing your move.
