1 How to prepare for the move
Each of us must change to one reason or another place of residence - someone changes jobs and moves to another city, someone was not comfortable in a one room apartment, and he wants her to change to a more spacious, and someone have to change the domicile of because of the acquisition of personal accommodation. If so, sincerely happy for you. But whatever there may be, to avoid the process of moving, you did not turn out. Many of us realized that soon they will have to move to start panicking and do not even know where to begin training. As a person who has sufficient experience in this field, I want to share with you a few tips, time-tested. I hope they will help you with the relocation.
Having defined the place of future residence, I advise you to immediately meet with the current owner of your home that you rent, and discuss with him the procedure of terminating the contract rent. You should also agree with him about the time after which you must vacate the premises. If you're a family man and have children, you must take care of a new school or kindergarten for your child, if your new home will be located in another part of town.
Since the procedure for preparing for the move and the process of preparing a fairly lengthy recommend agree with his leader several days of compensatory time off or leave.
After all of this you can start looking for companies or private owners, who can help you implement the procedure for removal. Since afford to hire professional movers can not each of us for the same financial reasons, I recommend to enlist the help of their colleagues, friends or relatives for assistance in moving. Two weeks before the date of the move is necessary to ring with the owner of the apartment and discuss with him the procedure for paying bills and transfer of flats. At the same time you can be getting the preparation of packing materials - bring in cardboard boxes, plastic bags, etc.
When moving to the left one week, I suggest you slowly begin to sort things and wherever possible, unnecessary things to give to relatives or to throw in the trash. Also, you can start to pack things in the near future you will not need - books, interior details, children's toys. You may also want to be to ring with friends and colleagues, on whose assistance you expect when moving and once again to clarify their plans.
Two days before the departure date can already fully addressed packed belongings and furniture. After packaging necessary to prepare sets of keys on the front door, the paper on which you pay for utilities, etc.
Finally I want you to wish you patience, without him in such a matter as your removal simply not do!
2 Transportation Office - where to start
It is sad, but with the move, in my life, have to face each of us. Change a rented apartment, moving to another city, in the end, buying a new apartment - in either case without the relocation is necessary. But one thing your removal, and where things are not so many, and not all furniture is moved, but if you have to change the location of your office. How to be a time where to start, because it is not the apartment where the relocation can spend a whole week, and the office of your company, you interrupt the work which is not desirable, well, at least, for a few days, you can stop providing services. How come then, where to start?
First do not panic! Calmly sit down on a sheet of paper and write out a list of that without which, at first, will not be able to work normally your company - this is furniture, computer equipment, archival and current documents, etc.
On another sheet write a list of things that your employees need a second priority - the details of decor, vases, aquarium, flower pots.
Items from the first list, you need to carry on the first day of moving staff to the next day to work. During such an audit, you must identify unnecessary things, which you in the future will not need, therefore, and transport them to you at the new place of residence will not come.
The second thing to do - is to distribute the role. Every employee should request that it packs and for what things he is responsible. According to the generally accepted rules, each person he packs his things - desk accessories, documentation which have to work only to him. Packaging of computer equipment to produce a better cooperation with the engineer - systems engineering. Every employee must sign the box to the transport there was no confusion.
With regard to packaging. To lay the working documentation, details of the interior and accessories must be in cardboard boxes. Therefore, their presence should be sufficient to take care in advance. Because, objectively assess how many boxes need none of us can not, I recommend the resort to professional help. A professional artist will help you select the necessary number of boxes, packaging material, determine how many cars need to carry things.
Of course, office moving - not a pleasant procedure, but do not forget that this life does not end there.
3 Housing Relocation - step by step
Well, things are packed, the box-set remained only to wait for the car and ordered aides. Experience shows that the process worse than expectations of the process of relocation. Just sitting idle is not much use, so I recommend you get down to business. First of all previously prepared polyethylene film lay a floor, to the relocation process does not damage the floor. If your home has an intercom system and stick to the door a leaflet with information about how to make the people of your entrance is not closed the door. Well, sure, before you begin the procedure is moving, good breakfast, because it is unlikely that during that day you fell out such a possibility to do it.
So it is time to move. Everything in the collection can begin. First, before you start to make things, you must determine how many times will need to travel, to carry all things, perhaps enough for one time. If there is only one factor, you first need to make furniture and load it into the car. Establish furniture should be on the lining - it might be wooden boards, foam strips, etc. In addition, it is desirable to fix indents or other materials at hand in the back of the car that in the process of transporting furniture is not moved. Following this, you need the street to the car, put all the boxes with your belongings and then, already in place, arrange them as compact as possible so that all your belongings could fit in the back of the car.
When all things were packed, you can move in a way. Itinerary and the way the entrance to the house would recommend to specify a car driver beforehand. Expressways, the central avenue, if possible, I recommend deletion of the route.
Reaching the place, the process of unloading the car perform in reverse order. Brought furniture recommend not to leave in the middle of the room, and immediately set in place where you think it should stand. This needs to be done for the reason that the move to the right place on their own, you can not but resort to the help of neighbors, you can not, because with them yet, you just do not know. Arriving at the place on the census list, check whether all the things on the spot, did you remember what a box or another thing.
4 Modern wrapping materials
If you have to move the procedure, special attention should be paid to packaging materials that you will use when packing their belongings. From the fact of what quality they are and whether they do depends on the integrity and security of your belongings. But often, this important detail of carriage, we are, why then, ignore and pack belongings into the first plastic bags, boxes for food and household chemicals. Sometimes we have to see how personal belongings zamatyvayut in blankets and quilts. Transport and transfer in such a way that little thing that is quite dangerous, so still very uncomfortable. Your attention, I want to propose a list of the most popular packaging materials that are used today to transport personal belongings.
The most popular among our compatriots enjoy bags and boxes made of cardboard. From the appointment of the box depends on the density of cardboard, from which it is made. Modern companies that provide transportation services use special boxes, made of special technical board capable of withstanding great physical exertion. Therefore, if you use the services of one of such companies, they will kindly provide for temporary use such boxes. The size of the box depends on its purpose - in small, high boxes packed dishes and books. Low box, rectangular form is used to transport clothes. If the boxes for one reason or another was not enough, you can use regular cardboard box with a food or household products for a nominal sum, you can get to the nearest market.
The second most popular wrapping materials in our country is the air - bubble film. This material is used for packing fragile things in the process of transportation can be easily damaged. Air - bubble film is used for the transport of glass decoration items, works of art objects, household appliances and computers - in general, to carry all of those things where damage and scratches should be removed.
Not one of your removal will not be able to do without adhesive tape. They and boxes can be sealed and moving furniture parts to fix. That's just not every tape for this purpose will do. Here, for example, conventional transparent tape can only seal the box, but the construction to fix the details of furniture, to seal their contours, which can be damaged during transport.
For packing dishes, ceramic convenient to use the paper - as an ordinary newspaper, and special technical. Once more, if your presence will be old quilt. They can wrap furniture to the carriage did not harm her on board the vehicle.
5 How to pack things
Well, the appointed date of the move left nothing at all, you can start to pack things. Each of us finds his apartment small but cozy. But experience shows that this view is often wrong. So before you begin packing things I recommend you stock up a decent amount of packaging materials - cardboard boxes, air bubble film, paper, large and thick plastic bags. Also prepare a paper and pen. They will need in order to capture what things are in a box.
Packing of things I recommend to start with clothes, underwear. The things you need to lay in large boxes, so they do not get crushed. Preferably clothes in plastic bags so that it does not become dirty and dust fell during transportation. Each box recommend attach a label with a list of things that are in it. This is a very straight forward task to a new place, where you have to mess up the task of all places. Since it is unlikely that in one or two days you can get used to the new place, and one or another thing you absolutely need, so you can quickly find it.
When finished with the clothes, you're ready to dish. For packing dishes you'll need a medium-sized boxes - the box height should be slightly larger than the diameter dishes. Ceramic utensils to put in a box to one side, tentatively shook every plate in the paper. In this situation dishes more stable and less to external mechanical influences. If transportation will conduct a commercial company, do not forget to apply the marker on the box label "Glass" to draw the attention of the stevedores. In cardboard boxes can also be cutlery, audio cassettes, CD-discs, shoes, toys and other personal belongings and interior details.
Following dishes packed book. Usually books stacked in cardboard boxes, but in this case must be especially careful not to overdo it. Otherwise, the box with your books when you transfer may simply collapse. If no suitable boxes, books can be decomposed into groups of 8-10 books and pull off the ordinary postal twine.
After this, you can move on to consumer technology. TV, computer and audio equipment should be packed in boxes, with which it was sold. If for any reason to keep the box did not work, you can use the other appropriate boxes, which are less suitable in size. But in this case, the technique is necessary to pack in the air - bubble film. A void to be filled with paper.
At least a track pack and carpets. Tracks can be folded in plastic bags, but the carpets need to turn as tightly as possible and in three places download twine.
6 How is moving office
Well, finally something has come such a long-awaited day of the move. Personal belongings stacked in boxes, there are only small - the arrival of the stevedores. Well, here they come, you can begin.
The procedure begins with the office move inventory. Representative of the company, together with you conducting a census of things and furniture. In the inventory sheet records the number of things, furniture, office equipment, check its condition and performance. Particular attention should be given to computer technology. Together with the representative must then test each PC. This will in future exclude the occurrence of various unpleasant situations. Prior to transport equipment is desirable to make backup copies of information that is stored on them. After inventory, the work can begin wrappers. Often the role of packers and movers speak the same people.
Present during disassembly and packing of office equipment and furniture you do not need. The first of which begins with the packaging - packaging it with computers and other office equipment. If the purchase of equipment was carried out not so long ago, may have survived the box, they can and pack equipment. Otherwise, the company uses special boxes, made of durable cardboard, capable of withstanding heavy loads. Each box must be pasted a sticker with information about your computer and its owner. Office equipment is packed in the first place in order to exclude dust, which rises in the air when moving the furniture.
Following the technique packed furniture, mirrors and other interior details. Seeing that all things are packed, the stevedores are taken for loading boxes into the car. Duration of loading depends on the number of boxes and the width of aisles of the building. In some cases, in order to bring a thing, have to take advantage of the window. Well, half the job done. For this you should leave an average of up to six hours.
Transportation route specified in advance. For some reason he can constantly changing - plugs, repair work, but it happens rarely.
Unloading Car begins with boxes of furniture. Followed by furniture, unpack and install mirrors, flowers, aquariums and other interior details. Each box should be unpacked in your presence. This is to ensure that exclude the appearance of defects. Only then decompress and install computer equipment. Then, according to the inventory sheet, you check the availability of things their condition and performance.
As you see, not so terrible, this procedure - office relocation.
7 Office move - to give preference
The first and main problem faced by the owner of each company, by changing the location of the office-which company to entrust the carriage? And may prefer "private owners"? Of course, choice is what. What can affect your choice - especially the price. So private traders, for the same services can take a much smaller amount compared with professional companies, but that's about the integrity and preservation of things in such a case it is better not to speak. But whether those savings money your things, one look at who is able to return to your past. On this and it will go further.
Let's start with private companies. The modern company, which provides similar services for the carriage of items using modern techniques. Such a vehicle is equipped with special racks that are easy to pack boxes of belongings, office equipment, packaged furniture. Application of modern locking equipment (straps and other accessories) ensures that the process of transporting your belongings will not hurt. The most popular vehicles in the domestic private entrepreneurs is "Gazelle", which is used for transportation, as furniture and office equipment. Not about any additional remedies to speak in this case is not necessary.
Equally unimportant fact is the use of modern wrapping materials and special cardboard boxes that can withstand heavy physical exertion. Enjoys great popularity of air-bubble film, thick foam, stand with foam, etc. In the case of the private producer to rely on these materials, you do not have to. In the best case that you can offer private entrepreneurs for the packing of things - these are ordinary cardboard boxes, with a product and simple plastic bags.
Another positive quality of private companies is the possibility of dismantling and packing of furniture and office professionals. This is particularly important if your disposal is a company of 20 or more employees, where no external support is needed. Moreover, these things you will put in the new building so you need to. These services are private entrepreneurs will not be able to offer. This is another drawback of private entrepreneurs.
The most important advantage of modern companies that provide services for transportation, is the ability to contract and the existence of a list of inventory. This assures you that recorded in the contract conditions are met and, in case of unsatisfactory services, you can claim compensation.
