How to Move Your Phoenix, AZ, Company to a New State

There are many reasons you may be considering moving your Phoenix, AZ-based company to a new state. One reason may be to lower the cost of doing business. Another attractive reason to relocate to a new state may be that it is simply better for the business, its owners, and its employees. No matter what your reason, you should know that there is a lot involved in a long distance move for a company. Here are some tips for moving your company to a new state.

1.       Plan in advance. It’s one thing to move your business to a new location just around the corner. It’s an entirely different thing to move it to a different state. Make sure you plan well in advance for this move. Go over all of the logistics, spend time looking for a new office space, look for tax incentives, and start researching moving companies as soon as possible – it’s never too early to hire a mover, especially for a long distance move.

2.       Consider business down time.  Moving your business to a new state could mean your company may be out of the office for longer than just a weekend. If your company allows for its employees to work from home, this could be a temporary solution to avoid interrupting your business operations.

3.       Re-register your company. Companies are required to re-register their businesses when they move to a new state. You may want to consult with an attorney to help you with this. And, depending on what type of business you own, you may need a new business license to work in your new location.

4.       Update your contact information. Make sure to update your address and contact information everywhere. This includes your business cards and letterheads, as well as your website and company profiles. Also, find a way to let your customers know that you are relocating.

5.       Market your company. Inevitably, you will be losing customers when you relocate, so you will need to create marketing campaigns and promotions in your new location.
