Trust me.Yes exactly, so far costs I have started to tally up.-Machinery mover for auto/dryer/manual/ exposure unit $2000-hydro New account $500 security deposit -alarm system $800 plus monitoring (no contract)-internet $80-phone not sure I think I may go with voip $40 month-electrical ? Guessing $2000, shop i think I'm going with has lost of hydro 3phase 600V 200amp , luckily it had a couple of CNC machines in and they left all the electrical intact-Heating not sure ? current shop propane and smaller so maybe only $700 a season , new shop bigger, gas , electric office -signage can do myself have sign stuff-has been painted but will probably seal floor so maybe another $400-Can't more than a week in setup because once march comes well be busyAny other surprises you had?

I would ask how much are you losing by NOT moving. we recently moved and we are now able to do more production faster thus making more money in a shorter period of time and being able to take on more work! so please add that into the equation of moving.sam
JonI disagree. can he handle a job of 10k shirts? will he have to move stuff around? we had to expand in order to get more machinery and thus making us more money. yes it does cost money, but is he losing money by not moving. that is the question. Maybe he is happy staying where he is at. maybe not!
Man, some days I wish I could take a step backward. Before I moved I had a 10c sportsman, 4 color manual, and 11 ft. dryer stuffed in a 25x25 garage in my backyard. Just did b2b almost all out of state or big clients nobody noticed except my neighbors when the big rigs rolled down my street.
