Document building rules

Confirm suite access, elevator or dock rules, parking, freight paths, insurance requirements, and whether after-hours work is required.

List equipment separately

Desks, chairs, monitors, printers, conference tables, boxes, and IT equipment should be described clearly.

Plan continuity

If the office needs to reopen quickly, note timing constraints and whether packing or staged movement is needed.
