Budgeting for a Commercial Move: Hidden Costs & How to Avoid Them

Commercial relocations can be pricey and if you are not prepared, you might end up with unanticipated or hidden costs. Budgeting is one of the most important parts of an office or business move and we are here to ensure that you know exactly how to budget for your move and how to avoid hidden costs.

As a leading Nashville moving and storage company, we have decades of experience planning and executing commercial moves of all sizes and types. Our commercial movers are here to ensure that you understand all things pricing & budgeting for your upcoming commercial relocation.

Hidden Costs Associated with Commercial Moves

When planning a commercial move, it helps to understand the various ways that hidden costs can show up during the course of your relocation. Some hidden and unanticipated commercial moving costs to be aware of include:

  • Inaccurate Estimates: Some moving companies may not give you an accurate estimate upfront. To avoid this, opt for a reputable and trustworthy moving company like Apex Moving & Storage. Our experts know how to gather detailed information about your move so that we can provide you with an accurate quote and help you avoid unpleasant surprises later. You may also choose to declutter before gathering moving estimates to decrease the amount of items that you need to move. This will help keep costs down and will help you get the most accurate estimate.
  • Packing Supplies: It is important that you consider the cost of packing materials. Some moving companies may provide packing materials as part of their services. You should begin gathering your supplies early and be sure to budget for them.
  • Specialized Services: Specialized services like packing, crating, storage, office decommissioning, and more will add to the cost of your relocation. It is essential that you decide which moving amenities you will require so that your moving company can provide you with the most accurate pricing information.
  • Late Booking: Late booking is an unanticipated moving cost that is usually easily avoided. For a commercial move, especially one that is large-scale, we recommend hiring movers well in advance and potentially relocating during an off-season time if possible.
