Vacation Rental Management Office Moving on the First Coast

Pick a weekday at least two days from the next turnover, so housekeeping has the old office for one wave and the new office for the next. We load the back room first, linen shelving and supply stock, then the desks, and finish with the dispatch station after the day’s last route goes out. At the new office, the dispatch desk goes in first so tomorrow’s routes start on time.

Beach offices on A1A in Jacksonville Beach, Ponte Vedra Beach, and St. Augustine Beach often share a small lot with restaurants and shops, so we time the truck for the morning before the lunch crowd. From March through summer, spring break and family vacations fill the calendar, and June through November is also hurricane season, when guest evacuations and storm cleanup can take over the office for days. We agree on a second date early.

Clean linen has to arrive clean. Cartons are sealed and labeled by property, ride on a covered truck floor, and wait indoors until loading starts, because a sudden afternoon shower on an open lot soaks cardboard in seconds. Folding tables and shelving travel wrapped, and we don’t stack supply bins on top of linen.

Keys and codes are the manager’s alone. The key cabinet is emptied and its contents carried by your staff, lockboxes stay under your control, and our crew moves the empty cabinet. Owner statements, guest records, and reservations files stay with the office team. At the new office, we place shelving and bins in the order housekeeping works, so each route’s supplies sit together on one run of shelves.
