Business relocation

Business relocation: from measuring up to restarting operations

Process and costs

Unsere Firma Professional on-site moving solutions with secure planning, flexible services and on-time execution.

A business relocation is more than a big office move: often a workshop, warehouse, machinery and stock move too, and every day of downtime costs revenue. That is why every job begins with a survey at both sites, in which we record volume, weights, access and time windows. This results in a relocation plan that sets out what is dismantled, transported and set up again, and when. Our liability for your inventory follows the rules of the HGB; if this limit is not enough for expensive equipment, we discuss additional insurance.

On moving day we dismantle office furniture, secure shelving and small parts, load pallets and boxes in the planned order and set everything up again at the new site according to the room plan. Heavy machinery, high-voltage connections or servers are clarified in advance with your specialists or the manufacturer. If the business is moving to another city, we plan the transport as a long-distance move. You receive the fixed price before booking, so the costs are in the budget from the start.

A fixed price for office, workshop and warehouse

Call us on 01625978461 and arrange a survey of both sites. We record the office, workshop, warehouse and machinery, clarify access and time windows and then give you a fixed price for your business relocation. We coordinate the process so that your business is at a standstill for as short a time as possible.

Quotes available individually based on workload, scheduling and the desired scope of services.

How we approach a business move

Plan, relocate, restart

We are based in Berlin (Stromstraße 21, Moabit) and plan business relocations in clear stages: first an inventory, then a relocation plan, then the move itself – in the evening or at the weekend on request. We give you the fixed price after the survey. Our liability for your inventory follows the HGB; the scope of liability is stated in the quote, and for machinery or expensive technology we discuss additional insurance. Read more about the service under Business relocation, and find places with their own pages under Locations.

Take stock

During the survey we record furniture, shelving, pallets, machinery and files at both sites – the basis for the lorry, the team and the fixed price.

Plan the stages

The warehouse, workshop and office do not have to move on the same day. A phased plan keeps parts of the business running while the rest moves.

Clarify the machinery

We check the weight, dimensions and connections of heavy equipment in advance. Electrical connections are disconnected and reconnected by a qualified electrician, not the moving team.

Set up again

At the destination we set up furniture, shelving and workstations according to the room plan, so your team can carry on working without a long search.

What determines the costs of a business relocation

How expensive a business relocation turns out depends less on the number of employees than on volume, weight and time windows. These six items determine the fixed price you receive after the survey.

01

Volume and pallets

The cubic metres of furniture, boxes, files and stock determine the lorry size and team strength – clearing out beforehand makes the move smaller.
02

Machinery and heavy loads

Heavy equipment needs pallet trucks, more hands or special equipment. We know the weight and dimensions in advance so that nothing is improvised on moving day.
03

Floors and access

Goods lift, ramp, stairwell or courtyard: the routes at both sites determine how long carrying and loading take.
04

Time window

Moving in the evening, at the weekend or in stages keeps the business running; the time windows needed are set out in the quote in advance.
05

Parking restriction

In Berlin you apply for a parking restriction zone in front of both addresses around four weeks in advance; the signs go up at least 72 hours beforehand.
06

Additional services

Furniture assembly, storage or disposal of old equipment appear as separate items in the fixed price, so you can choose.
NATIONWIDE SERVICE

Small business, small load

Save on smaller loads

If only a small business, a shop or a single department is moving, a shared load can be cheaper: furniture, boxes or individual devices travel on a lorry that is heading in your direction anyway. Instead of a fixed day, we agree a time window – a good idea if there is no pressing deadline.

So you can relax

Around a business relocation, tasks arise that have little to do with furniture: re-registering the business at the new site, informing customers and suppliers, updating the legal notice (Impressum) and invoice templates. If employees are relocating for work too, we also help with the private move. If the business is changing city, we organise the transport as a long-distance move. For parking space in front of both addresses, there is our parking restriction zone service.

Planning safe and relaxed

A good checklist coordinates dates, helpers and materials early. That way your home move, senior move or student move in Berlin stays transparent, structured and markedly easier to control.

Furniture, boxes, transport routes

With a suitable packing service, careful furniture transport and a flexible small transport, ways can be shortened, damage avoided and even narrow approaches in Berlin managed cleanly in logistical terms.

Costs, timing and special cases

Clear time windows and suitable solutions for an office move, company move, authority move, part load or furniture taxi create reliable processes and better plannable total costs in Berlin.

Questions about business moves

Costs, lead time, machinery, liability and downtime in a business relocation – answered briefly.
The costs of a company move vary depending on office size, distance and required additional services such as furniture assembly or an IT move. Through our transparent fixed-price model, you receive a binding quote before signing the contract, without hidden costs. That way you can plan the budget for your business realistically and avoid unpleasant surprises. Contact us for a free assessment of your individual moving project.

Process of a company move: step by step

A successful business relocation starts with a detailed on-site survey in which we define the scope, special features and timeframe together with you. We then draw up an individual relocation plan that precisely coordinates dismantling, packing, transport and assembly in order to minimise downtime. Particularly sensitive areas such as server rooms or archives are planned separately and secured with special packing materials.

On the actual moving day, our well-rehearsed team works to a clear schedule, so that all furniture, technology and documents are transported in an orderly way. After arrival at the new site we assemble the furniture and put technology and machinery in their place; connecting them is handled by your IT and electrical specialists. When the business will be fully running again is set out in the relocation plan – for pure office space often on the next working day, for workshops with machinery usually later.

Costs, advantages and tips for your company move

The costs of a business relocation depend on factors such as volume, distance, floors, heavy machinery, stock and special services such as furniture assembly or an IT move. Thanks to our transparent fixed-price model, you receive a binding quote in advance without hidden extra costs. A professional moving partner also saves your employees valuable working time, so they can continue to focus on the core business.

For a smooth process we recommend planning around two to three months in advance – commercial leases, telephone and internet connections and machinery servicing often have long lead times. It also makes sense to label all boxes and pieces of furniture clearly by department, to speed up setting up at the new site. Inform customers and suppliers about the new address in good time to avoid business interruptions. The business can usually deduct the moving costs as operating expenses (§ 4 para. 4 EStG); keep the quote and invoice.
