Free planning kit

The NYC office move, week by week.

The paperwork, access, IT, and handoffs that determine whether your team starts Monday in a working office.

1. 8 weeks out

   Confirm the new lease, access contacts, move budget, and whether furniture or IT needs disposal.

2. 6 weeks out

   Request COI rules and freight-elevator windows from both buildings. Order internet and review the furniture plan.

3. 4 weeks out

   Finalize inventory, packing scope, floor plans, insurance requirements, and employee communication.

4. 3 weeks out

   Reserve elevators and loading zones. Confirm the mover walkthrough and schedule IT disconnects.

5. 2 weeks out

   Label workstations, back up devices, confirm the cutover sequence, and circulate the move-day command sheet.

6. 1 week out

   Reconfirm certificates, keys, parking, elevator reservations, disposal, and first-night essentials.

7. Move day

   Assign one owner to the old site and one to the new site. IT signs off before the crew leaves.

8. After the move

   Confirm working desks, collect damage or missing-item notes, and close the old space broom-clean.
