Even with remote working being more common, the majority of employees in the UK are still office-based. Across Manchester and the surrounding areas, there are numerous offices that have been – and will be – in need of our clearance service, but what exactly does this entail?
Office clearance is a service designed to help businesses clear out unwanted office items and equipment, often in preparation for a move, renovation, or property sale. The process is relatively straightforward. If you’re an office owner, all you have to do is get in touch with us and we’ll book an initial consultation.
During this consultation, we’ll discuss your clearance needs – whether you’re moving, downsizing, renovating, or just decluttering – and we’ll assess the scale of the project. From there, a site assessment will be done – determining which items are still usable and which need to be disposed of – and on a day of your choosing, we’ll begin the process.
One of the key benefits of choosing our office clearance service is our commitment to sustainability. As we clear your office, we’ll carefully sort through the items to identify what can be repurposed, recycled, or donated, and at every step, we’ll help your business maintain an environmentally responsible approach. Once all the items are cleared, we’ll then offer you the necessary paperwork and make sure your space is tidy and ready for its next use.
Whether you’re moving to a new office or renovating your space, the hassle of dealing with numerous items can be stressful. By choosing our service, you’re putting that part of the job into our hands, allowing you to focus on your work while we do the rest.
Let’s say you’re just looking to get rid of the clutter. A cleared office space creates a more organised and efficient work environment for you and your employees, allowing you to work in a clutter-free space which improves focus, productivity, and better space utilisation.
The items we handle during an office clearance aren’t always heavy-duty, but there are still health risks if you try to deal with them yourself – or worse still, ignore them and allow the clutter to build. By choosing our service, you’re ensuring a safer working environment, reducing the likelihood of accidents and improving employee well-being.
One of the most important things to consider during office clearance is how to handle sensitive company data. Whether it’s stored on computers, servers, hard drives, or other devices, protecting confidential information is paramount, and since we’re not part of your company, we take our role as outsiders very seriously.
The first thing to note is that every business is legally obligated to comply with GDPR, so we’ll make sure any sensitive data is handled in strict compliance with these data protection laws. Before disposing of any electronic devices, all data will be completely wiped, using certified software to erase all sensitive information. We can also provide a certificate of data destruction, serving as proof that your company’s data has been handled and disposed of properly, and in accordance with legal requirements.
When it comes to transporting devices that contain sensitive data, we’ll make sure everything is secured to avoid unauthorised access, with no sensitive material being left unattended throughout the removal process. Rest assured, if we’re handling anything with sensitive data, we’ll make sure to do so professionally and compliantly, keeping your data safe while the office is cleared.
If you’re in need of office clearance, make sure you get in touch today to book a consultation, and in the meantime, check out our FAQs to learn more about what our service entails.
