- Ask them the right questions. Your move coordinator should work closely with you to understand your requirements and create a personalised move plan thats suitable for your needs. By asking the right questions on what services will be provided, how long the move will take, what packing materials or specialist equipment they have available, will they follow a floorplan to put your furniture and equipment back in to place in your new offices etc. Your move coordinationar should also be able to give you advice and also give you confidence in potentially using the mover.
- Ask for recent testimonials. If you are still unsure on a mover they should always be able to provide you with a recent customer testimonials or case studies from similar business moves they have completed. Asking a customer on their experience of moving with a company is useful as it gives you a second opinion before you make your decision.
