Relocating your office? Fun. Just kidding—it’s mostly boxes, wires, and trying not to break anything important while staying on schedule. If you’re headed to Round Rock, you’re probably balancing a lot: new space, existing workload, and a team that still needs to function during the chaos.
Here’s what actually matters when you’re moving your office—and how to avoid the headaches we see over and over again.
If you only have one date on your calendar—the day the movers show up—you’re already behind.
Office moves have layers. IT setups, utilities, furniture disassembly, packing timelines, security access, signage updates, notifying clients, and so on. If you’re managing a team, every delay hits productivity. You need a timeline that starts weeks out, not just a move-in deadline.
We’ve seen teams scrambling with cords still plugged in when the truck pulls up. Not ideal.

We’ve had office moves where 40 identical boxes show up with the word “stuff” on all of them. That’s not going to cut it.
You don’t need to micromanage, but you do need a system. Color-coding by team, using office numbers, marking what’s fragile—this stuff saves hours. Especially if your IT person is trying to reconnect everything in a hurry and can’t find the backup drive box.
Don’t expect to be fully operational the moment the last desk leg is screwed in. Have a plan for what needs to be online and functional first:
Also: pre-schedule your junk pickup. You’ll have more packing material than you think.
We’ve helped move tech teams, insurance offices, storefronts—you name it. And here’s the thing: office moves are their own beast. It’s not just about lifting stuff. It’s about understanding how to keep your team running while everything shifts.
