Easy Office Relocation

Despite the economic gloom and doom over the last few years, there is no doubt that London is one of the leading cities in the business world and literally thousands of companies have a London office. These offices can be anything from a swanky west end office in Mayfair, a prestigious head office in the city or a more basic small company office in a cheaper part of town.

Firms operating from expensive and high profile premises will naturally want to ensure that their offices are fitted out with furniture in keeping with their environment. London Office Furniture are certainly a firm worth considering as they can supply a very comprehensive range of office furniture products in a choice of eight MFC finishes in addition to a couple of real wood veneer finishes. Many of their products and a large range of seating can be viewed at a showroom that is within just 10 minutes walk of Farringdon tube station. Viewings are by appointment only.

In addition to the showroom and the large range of office furniture on offer, they also offer site visits and a full space planning service to business premises in London and within the M25 for medium and larger projects subject to a minimum budget of say £3000. So if you are looking for Office Furniture in London then check out their website or give them a call!

Many firms have been in the situation of needing office furniture very quickly. Often this is because in the hustle and bustle of daily office life they maybe forgot to order a new desk for a new starter. The problem up until recently has been who can supply office furniture on next day delivery. Chairs have been available on next day delivery for quite some time as most chairs are boxed up for warehouse storage and the boxes have been up to being sent out on a standard carrier delivery service. Desks, pedestals and tables are a completely different matter though because carriers have not been geared up for products that due to their weight are very easily damaged in transit.

One UK firm has taken a ground breaking approach to delivering heavy office furniture on Next Day delivery. Office Furniture Pronto specialise entirely in delivering a wide range of Office Furniture products on a next day delivery basis. All products on their website are stocked and providing you order by 11:00am on a working weekday they will be dispatched on the same day for next day delivery. This is acheived by ultra careful quality control and careful packaging making their products suitable for delivery via standard freight pallet delivery services.

So if you need office furniture in Cardiff, office desks in Bristol or office tables in Barnet then the people to contact are Office Furniture Pronto by checking their website.

You should note that all next day office furniture deliveries are by pallet and to kerbside only, though most delivery personnel will transport the pallet a short distance to the building entrance via pump truck providing there are no steps and access is level. The freight delivery drivers are not required to deliver goods indoors or remove goods from pallets though if asked many delivery staff will usually wait on site a minute or two whilst a pallet is unloaded by a customer and then take the pallet away from your premises if required.

Office Furniture Pronto say that their service may not be suitable for all customers since not every customer wants to handle and assemble flat pack furniture tbut they claim that the service usually appeals to business customers, schools, construction firms and or any customer in the Wolverhampton area who needs business quality furniture in a rush or who needs office furniture to arrive on a particular day by timing their order carefully. Tables, desks, cupboards and bookcases are delivered flat packed and require assembly though most desks can be assembled fairly quickly. Filing cabinets and pedestals are mostly supplied with a pre-assembled carcass so no fiddly assembly of drawers is required. The majority of office chairs are delivered boxed and also require assembly. Most conference style stackable chairs are delivered ready to use.

During our recent office relocation projects we have noticed an increasing trend in the London area for fitting out new offices with white office furniture. When you see a newly fitted London office, kitted out in good quality white furniture it’s not hard to understand why this is becoming so fashionable as it looks stunning. We particularly like the furniture ranges shown on this White Office Furniture web site. They have recently introduced a couple of particularly nice office furniture ranges, the Ganton range and the Walton range. These furniture ranges are manufactured in the UK and available in either Snow White or Alpine Beech finish and delivery of the stocked items is quite fast at only a week or 3 weeks for any nonstock or unstocked items. There are also substantial ranges of pedestals, filing cabinets and cupboards in matching Snow White and Alpine Beech.

Also featured on this site is a comprehensive range of contract white office furniture, also manufactured in the UK but by another manufacturer in a finish called Ice White. This range of furniture is not an exact match for the Snow White finish, so it is probably best not to mix these ranges in the same office. The beauty of the contract range is that it has such a wide range of products, including a huge range of cupoards, bookcases, pedestals and tables. The contract range of white office furniture is fully made to order and is generally available on a 3 week lead time. Firms who can’t wait 3 weeks for Office Furniture probably ought to consider non-white finishes because white office furniture is still mostly only available on extended lead times.

The Largo range of office furniture has been a best seller in the UK office furniture market for several years. This popularity is due to Largo office furniture offering a combination of value and style together with an extensive range of modular matching office furniture products such as wooden filing cabinets, bookcases, cupboards and pedestals.

The Largo desks are designed around the clever metal cantilever leg design which incorporate cable management channels with easily detachable side panels. From an installation point of view the drawback to the Largo design is that the legs are a bit tricky to assemble, consisting of 4 metal structural parts which screw together.

Most businesses will relocate offices at some stage. The stress involved with office relocation is easy to under estimate. The secret is to plan ahead and to use reputable businesses to help along the way.

You may need to arrange for office furniture to be removed and disposed of from your old office and you may need to arrange for new office furniture to be installed at your new office. The greater the number of staff involved the greater the need to plan well ahead and think about your requirements and the practicalities in detail.
