How to Coordinate a Multi-Location Commercial Move Efficiently

Coordinating a commercial move is a significant undertaking—but when your business operates across more than one site, the complexity can multiply fast. Whether your offices or facilities are in Abbotsford, BC, Edmonton, AB, or both, a seamless multi-location move is crucial to minimize disruption and ensure your business continues running smoothly. At Low Budget Moving and Storage, we understand the challenges involved in multi-site moves. With careful planning and our expert commercial moving services, you can relocate with confidence, efficiency, and cost-effectiveness.


Why Multi-Location Commercial Moves Need Special Planning


Moving a business with multiple locations is about more than moving office furniture. It’s about keeping your teams connected, assets safe, and project timelines on track. Companies in Abbotsford and Edmonton that spread operations across several sites often have unique needs—ranging from relocating specialized equipment and sensitive files to integrating IT systems and maintaining operational continuity.


A poorly planned move can result in lost productivity, misplaced assets, and confusion for staff and clients alike. That’s why your moving strategy should emphasize detailed organization, expert coordination, and experienced commercial movers who know the local landscape.


Step 1: Develop a Centralized Moving Plan


A successful multi-location commercial move starts with a comprehensive, centralized plan. Here’s how to begin:


- Appoint a move manager or core relocation team to oversee the process for all locations.

- Create a project timeline, clearly outlining key dates for each phase of the move.

- Conduct walkthroughs at both the current and new facilities in Abbotsford and Edmonton to evaluate inventory, furniture, equipment, and IT requirements.

- Assess which assets will move, be donated, sold, or stored.

- Establish communication channels to keep all staff informed and aligned.


Low Budget Moving and Storage offers personalized moving plans tailored to the needs of each business, making it easy to coordinate a smooth transfer between multiple Canadian locations.


Step 2: Inventory Management and Asset Tracking


Managing inventory across various offices or sites can be daunting. Streamlining this process minimizes confusion and mitigates risk:


- Use detailed inventory lists and labeling for boxes, furniture, electronics, and files.

- Employ color-coded tags for items belonging to different departments or locations.

- Digitally track your assets using spreadsheets or moving management software.

- Schedule pre-move packing days at each location to reduce last-minute scrambling.


Our commercial moving team in Edmonton and Abbotsford is skilled in professional packing, detailed labeling, and secure asset management for peace of mind at every step.


Step 3: Leverage Professional Packing and Specialty Services


Efficient packing is the backbone of a successful multi-location business relocation. Consider these best practices:


- Protect sensitive and high-value equipment with tailored packing materials.

- Disassemble and reassemble workstations, cubicles, and large furniture as needed.

- Arrange for specialty services, such as moving IT servers, business inventory, or fragile laboratory/medical equipment.

- Employ secure, climate-controlled storage services in both Edmonton and Abbotsford for items that need safeguarding during the transition.


Low Budget Moving and Storage offers full-service commercial packing and can coordinate specialty item moves, ensuring your assets arrive intact, organized, and on schedule.


Step 4: Coordinate Move-In at Each New Location


Staggered move-ins allow for a smoother transition:


- Plan phased move-ins, starting with essential departments to ensure immediate operational capability.

- Set up IT and communications infrastructure before relocating staff.

- Schedule final inspections and walkthroughs after all items arrive to confirm everything is in place.

- Provide staff with updated facility maps and information to ease the first day in their new workspace.


Our crews at both Abbotsford and Edmonton locations work efficiently and are familiar with local buildings, regulations, and logistics. We’ll guide your team through every stage of the relocation process.
