If you're moving your Kamloops business, there's much more to it than packing moving boxes, driving from point A to point B, and unpacking. If only it was that easy! Organization is the key to a successful move — especially when relocating a business. Logistically, moving a business to a new location is complex. First, there's visualizing where things will go in your new offices, when to do what part of the move, ensuring services are hooked up and ready when you're in, and lastly, what to do if you find out your business equipment, furnishings, and other office items, won't fit in your new space.
