When you think of office moves, summer often springs to mind. But in reality, autumn is one of the best seasons to relocate your business. From cooler weather to better staff availability, the months between September and November offer plenty of advantages for planning and carrying out a successful move.
At Commercial Moves Group, we’ve helped countless businesses in Aberdeen and across the UK plan their relocations. Here’s why we think autumn is the golden season for making your move.
1. Cooler Weather, Easier Logistics
Nobody enjoys lugging crates and equipment around in the sweltering heat. Autumn’s cooler, steadier weather makes moving far more comfortable for your team and our crews alike. Plus, it reduces the risk of overheating IT equipment and helps protect sensitive items during transport.
2. Staff Are Back and Ready to Focus
Summer holidays can make scheduling a nightmare, with key decision-makers and team members out of the office. By autumn, staff are back and routines are more settled. This makes it much easier to coordinate departments, communicate plans, and keep everyone engaged in the moving process.
3. Beat the Year-End Rush
Many companies aim to be settled into new offices before the new year. By planning your move in autumn, you avoid the December rush and give your team plenty of time to settle in before the festive break. It’s also a great chance to start the new year fresh, in a space designed to support your business goals.
4. Time for a Clear-Out Before Winter
An office move is the perfect excuse for a seasonal clear-out. Declutter old files, recycle unused equipment, and donate surplus furniture. By streamlining before winter, you’ll start in your new space tidy, organised, and ready for a productive new year.
5. Storage and Flexibility Options
Need somewhere to keep items during the move? Autumn is a great time to take advantage of secure storage solutions, especially if you want to phase your move or wait until the new office layout is fully ready. With shorter days approaching, having a flexible plan and secure offsite storage gives you peace of mind.
