Successful commercial relocations take time and effort to safely transport free-standing furniture, fixtures, and equipment, or FF&E. Business owners and property managers, for example, rely on professional movers to pack, relocate, and unpack their offices. Here’s what you should know if you’re planning to move your business.

FF&E Transport Tips

1. Scope of Services

Although some movers offer comprehensive moving services, others do not. Moving FF&E requires an experienced team. Working with a moving company that offers a complete catalog of services, including packing, transporting, and unpacking, is essential. You’ll save time, which will allow you to focus on the technical aspects of the move and minimize disruption to your business operations.

2. Storage Space Security

Things may not always go according to plan during a move. You may experience an unforeseen delay that may necessitate putting your FF&E into temporary storage. Weather is a common complication of relocations, whether a move takes you down the block or across the state. A moving company that offers secure storage space for housing property during relocation disruptions will help you cope with any move-day headaches.

3. Timing It Properly

Don’t make the mistake of timing an FF&E delivery incorrectly. Coordinate with your movers so that your business doesn’t experience unnecessary downtime during a relocation. You can’t reopen your office, for example, without desks, chairs, supplies, and files. Make sure that delivery is timed to coincide with your planned reopening date.
