Office Move Planning sounds like something you can figure out later—until your team’s boxed in, your phones are down, and no one knows where the server rack went.
When companies assume an office move will "just work itself out," they often end up dealing with missed deadlines, frustrated staff, and lost productivity.
If you’ve heard that “a few days of disruption is normal,” we’re here to tell you: it doesn’t have to be. Most office moves fail because of four preventable mistakes—and with the right strategy, your move can actually be a business win.
1. More Movers ≠ More Control
You don’t need an army. You need a plan—and someone to lead it. BBX assigns a dedicated Project Manager to every commercial move,They handle every detail—from timelines and floor plans to crew coordination - so your staff can stay out of the chaos and do what they do best.

2. Downtime That Costs More Than You Think
Lost emails. Missed calls. Disconnected systems. A day of downtime can cost thousands in lost opportunity—and recovery often takes longer than expected. We've moved dozens of businesses overnight and on weekends, so they never skip a beat.
External stat: According to Forbes Business Council, poor planning causes over 70% of move-related business disruptions.
3. Labels Win Over Luck
Labeling a box “Admin stuff” isn’t helpful. One of the fastest ways to derail an office move is by turning unpacking into a treasure hunt. At BBX, we use clearly marked, stackable plastic box rentals with slots for workstation names, departments, or zones—making setup fast and frustration-free.
4. Don’t Put Your Team in Charge
This one’s a silent killer. When your staff are asked to pack, lift, or direct a moving crew, they’re not doing their actual jobs. Morale drops. Tasks slip. Things get missed. A successful office move means letting your team stay focused while we handle furniture, installation, storage, and asset disposal.

Client Testimonial
Lori - Concord Pacific
"First I want to thank you and your crew, they worked really hard last night, and we under estimated how much we had. I also want to pass on, just how great your team is, they are very respectful, I even had a coworker who overheard your lead (JP) talking to the crew and she commented how respectful he was just talking to them. So pass it on to the guys, they could have gotten quite annoyed with us, I know its hard work and they put in a really long day."
