Websites for office relocation companies
For removalists moving offices, clinics and studios, where the booking is made by a manager with a deadline, and nobody wants the business closed on a weekday.
Office managers, practice owners and facilities staff
A commercial move is often booked by someone other than the person who signs off on it: an office manager or practice owner with a lease end date, a list of worries and someone to report to. They search, shortlist a few movers, and send the shortlist upstairs.
That changes what your website has to do. It has to look like a business that handles businesses: organised, insured, careful with equipment and files, and able to work around trading hours.
Their questions are different from a household's. Who disconnects the computers? Can you move us on a Saturday? Do you book the goods lift? What happens to the confidential files between one building and the next?
Paperwork matters to them too. The NSW Government's advice for anyone hiring a removalist is that the contract should include an inventory, addresses, dates and times2. An office client expects that as standard, so your site should say you provide it.
What the site has to show
A plan for moving without closing
The main thing an office client buys is continuity. Your site should explain how a typical office move runs: a site visit, a labelling system, a move window after close of business or over a weekend, and staff back at their desks on the next working day if that is what you deliver.
A move-day checklist page gives the office manager something to forward to staff. It is useful to them, and it keeps your name in front of the person who approves the booking.
IT and file handling, spelled out
Say what your crew does with computers and servers, what the client's IT provider does, and how confidential files travel.
Costs that don't surprise
Delays happen in commercial buildings. Say up front whether there are storage costs if moving day is delayed, and card surcharges1, as Queensland's fair trading advice suggests customers ask.

Questions from office relocations
Read next: Removalist quote forms: what to ask for each move size.
The plan itself is the same for every removal business: pricing, what's included.
Office clients want a site visit, not an online quote. Does a form still help?
Yes. The form books the site visit and collects the basics first, so you arrive knowing the desk count, the building rules and the deadline. It replaces the first phone call, not the visit.
Should my office page be separate from house moves?
Yes. The person booking an office move is comparing commercial movers. A home page full of family moves makes you look like a residential business that also does offices.
Can I list the types of businesses I have moved?
You can describe the kinds of premises you handle, such as medical practices or small offices. Name a client only with their written permission, and never suggest a relationship you don’t have.
Do I need a page about document security?
If you move offices that hold client files, such as accountants, clinics or law practices, a short page on how files are packed, sealed and tracked answers a question they will ask.
