If you’re considering moving your office, it may be for many different reasons such as:

• your business is growing and you need more space
• you want to get closer to your clients and customers
• your business model has pivoted and you don’t need as much space anymore
• you’re downsizing and need to reduce rent expenses
• you’re buying a property instead of leasing space

You also need to consider how you’re going to make the move, like disassembling and reassembling furniture; taking your IT network down and turning it back up; getting rid of old and bulky items you no longer need; and let’s not forget all the décor and office improvement decisions you’ll have to make!

Of course you also need to take into account the needs of your employees and staff, and of the impact of the transition on their morale and their overall productivity. Business never stops, and nor should you!

One thing you shouldn’t have to worry about however, is choosing the right partner for your commercial move. There may be many commercial movers out there, but there is only one High Energy Transport Inc.

Simply put, warehousing is the process of storing items in a certain location during the shipping or fulfilment portion of a business transaction as they transit from one point to another in the supply chain to get to the end customer.

You can temporarily store items in your business’ stockroom or your shipping dock, but to get the maximum use out of your space and to help you control inventory and shipping costs, it’s best to store your physical goods in a safe and secure warehouse.

Why use an external warehouse to store my products?

The explosion of e-commerce over the past 2 years has put a lot of pressure on storage space and delivery times. Tech savvy customers constantly order products online and expect fast delivery times. Having warehousing facilities in a centrally-located area of the city enables you to provide faster shipping options and keeps the customer happy and coming back to you.

Also, having 3^rd party external warehouse space speeds up your delivery to your clients and helps control your inventory costs by eliminating the extra steps of receiving all the products in-house, unpacking, picking, re-packing and finally shipping it all back out. It also helps minimize mistakes with all these manual processes, since warehousing staff are experts at what they do; and they do it every single day, day in and day out.

You may need warehousing facilities for:

• Inventory storage: free up space and your employees’ time by storing your products at an off-site facility
• Cross-province or cross-border shipping: separate and rearrange your orders on a regional basis, and send the right inventory to the right destination from the get-go
• Optimizing your capacity: combine multiple shipments and multiple orders into one container for a more cost-effective delivery
• Centralizing your shipments: use a centrally-located effective distribution centre as the warehousing hub for your business
• Improving your delivery times: get your shipments out to your customers faster with a centrally-located warehouse close to your clients locations

Every day there are more goods, products and equipment being shipped across the country, throughout the province or simply across town. This has certainly been the case for the past 18 months as E-commerce orders have skyrocketed and more businesses and consumers are having products delivered to their doors.

However, not all packages are alike and some products require special care & attention during the packing, shipping and delivery process. This is especially true for fragile, oversized or heavy items, or for items that may require on-site assembly.

What is a White Glove Service?

A White Glove Service is a premium delivery service that provides extra care and attention for those products that need a bit of extra TLC to get it to its intended destination. The items can also be unpacked, assembled, moved into the right position and the packaging materials can be disposed of for you.

These items can be products delivered to a warehouse, to a business' shipping dock, to a retail location that doesn't have a shipping dock or directly to a consumer's home. Think about:

• Large appliances including removal of the old appliances in a consumer's home
• Shipping hot tubs to a retail store's showroom
• A new dentist's chair for a dental office in a local strip mall
• A billiards table for the rec room of that new startup uptown
• A 3D Printer for a local manufacturer in the suburbs
• An industrial air conditioning unit for an office tower downtown

What are the benefits of a White Glove Service?

There are many reasons why you should consider a White Glove Service for some of your shipments:

• It's easy: one call takes care of shipping, unpacking, assembling and disposing of materials
• It's simple: your White Glove Service provider coordinates all the delivery team's activities and arranges for proper scheduling and execution

What is Final Mile Delivery?

Final Mile Delivery or Last Mile Delivery is that last link in the supply chain where a product or shipment actually makes it to its intended recipient, whether it's at a business location, a retail store, a customer's home or to a designated collection point like a lockbox used for e-commerce.

The products may be stored in a warehouse location, a distribution center or even a retail store, and getting them to the client on time is crucial. The final mile delivery is the most expensive part of the supply chain, and can create a lot for headaches for 3PL companies, especially since there are more e-commerce deliveries now than ever before. E-commerce deliveries have changed the dynamics from shipping a few large orders from storage locations to businesses and store, to shipping very many smaller orders to multiple locations in a broader geographical scope.

3PL companies are struggling with this new environment, and this is where a reliable transportation partner can make a world of difference in not only keeping costs down but also accelerating the speed of deliveries and increasing customer satisfaction as well.

What to look for in a shipping partner?

There are many factors to consider when selecting the right shipping partner for your last mile deliveries:

• A centrally located warehouse close to major highways for ease of access. This is important as the warehouse will not only be closer to your clients, but it will help shorten delivery times as well.
• 24-Hour access. The warehouse and sorting facility should be accessible 24 hours a day; business never stops and neither should your ability to move your products.
• Handling of heavy and oversized shipments. This is a critical function for large commercial, industrial or residential shipments, whether it's air conditioning units for a strip mall, a CNC machine for an auto parts shop or a 10-person hot tub for a homeowner.
• Experienced staff in handling high volumes of orders with a history of reliable, on-time deliveries.
• Excellent communications and collaboration. Needless to say this will ensure a smooth handling of your shipments and delivering the right order to the right customer at the right time.

There are many occasions in the lifespan of any business when it becomes necessary to move offices. That might be because you are expanding your business to a second location, or downsizing it. Or it might be because you just want to ensure you are actually in the right location for your business.

Whatever the reason, there are always lots of things that you need to consider when you are thinking about moving offices. In this blog, we will take you through some of the most important of these - and as you will see, it's about much more than just remembering those boxes of paper.

Disassembling & Reassembling Furniture

Chances are you don't want to have to buy all new furniture, so that means you are going to want to transport your existing items as best as you can. But it is not simply a case of carrying it from one place to another. In fact, you will need to first disassemble your furniture, so that you can much more readily transfer it to the appropriate location, and then you'll need to reassemble it in the right place, in the right part of the office. All of that takes time, and it's something you might want to find help for.

IT Network Reconfiguration

If you are not careful, the simple act of moving your IT network can cause serious problems for your business. You could end up losing data, losing the security of the system that your customers rely on to keep their data safe, and putting your business at risk of further cyber trouble. You need to properly take it apart and professionally reconfigure it again at the other end to avoid these issues, and to ensure you still have the same complete IT system after you have moved offices.

Disposing Of Old Items

There will also be a huge number of items that you don't want to take with you, and you would rather just get rid of. But do you know how to actually dispose of everything in the most sensible, environmentally-friendly and simplest way possible? You might find that it's best to get some help with the disposal of filing cabinets, papers, chairs, tables and so on. And just how on earth do you dispose of the break room pinball machine, or a vending machine? You'll likely need some help on that front too.

Getting Help

As you can see, there are a lot of things to think about, and hiring professional commercial movers may be the best move you make. Having a dedicated project manager to make sure all aspects of your move are handled quickly and efficiently will make your life a lot simpler and make your move as stress-free as possible.
