What does an office relocation cost?

Every office move is different—but the stress and cost surprises don’t have to be.

At Shift, we help companies understand, plan for, and manage their office relocation costs with total transparency. We’re not a moving company—we’re your project manager. That means we help you build a realistic budget, vet vendors, and make smart decisions that protect your time and bottom line.

From early estimates to final invoices, we help you see the full picture—and avoid the hidden costs.
