Relocating Your Warehouse Space

If you’re considering relocating your warehouse space, there are several important factors that you must consider. From the location of your next warehouse, to your own personal touches of design and functionality, it’s vital that you work with professionals who can help make the transition easier for yourself, your customers, and your team. Here are important details to consider when relocating your warehouse space.

Finding The Right Space
Relocating to a new warehouse space can symbolize a new beginning for your business and operations. Stack your deck by choosing the perfect location. Consider your warehouse needs, the space allocated, and the proximity to potential customers, clients, and team members. Not only choosing the size of the warehouse you’re transferring to, but also what city you’re working from is essential to how your warehouse will run after you make the move.

Setting Up Electrical, Mechanical, And Plumbing
When relocating their warehouse space, many business owners opt to choose an existing warehouse. Before personalization can begin, make sure your new warehouse has the essentials that make your business run. Typical essentials include electrical, mechanical, and plumbing. A good contractor will be able to adjust, upgrade and change to your needs but having the essentials with only minor adjustments saves you time and money.

Receiving The Right Permits
When updating and renovating your new warehouse space for your relocation, it’s vital that you do the necessary research on the applicable building codes and permits in the area. Different town jurisdictions can vary, so it’s important to have a strong understanding of the necessary permits for your area and the timelines that go along with it. With the ever changing construction environment consider that the process could take longer than expected and plan this well in advance with your contractor or take the initiative to apply with the city.

Finding The Right Movers
Hiring the right professional movers to facilitate your warehouse space relocation is one of the most important steps to consider. Research the movers in the area to determine who has the best service as well as who can accommodate your specific needs. It’s recommended that you begin your search for the right movers months in advance, as many movers are booked for months ahead, and may need extra time depending on the size of your move. There are only a handful of moving companies that can accommodate commercial and industrial moves, time is needed.

Organizing The Lease
Overlapping your lease as well as your operations between the two warehouses will save you a lot of stress in the long run. It’s no secret that a warehouse space relocation is an extremely extensive process that takes time and should not be rushed. Choosing to overlap your lease for the first few weeks or more can allow yourself and your staff to move your belongings and operations properly without cutting corners.
