Office Space and Moving

Having served the IT market for many years we have a short list of people we recommend for finding office space and for moving. Douglas Houghton of CRESA Partners has satisfied hundreds of small businesses in finding great space with great leases. Being fully independent, Doug and CRESA Partners represent tenants, not building managers. When it comes to moving, it really helps to have an experienced project manager specializing in all aspects of the move, from IT transfer, to logistics and transportation. Rachel Walls is up there with the best and her company, The Golden Gate Company, LLC, has been top notch for the past 8 years.

Computers and Recycling

We know the people at Electrotech Recyclers. They are responsive, careful and fair. And scheduling a pickup is easy. Here's a directory of recycler locations in the Bay Area and some have free drop off days at various locations. This takes care of the big stuff, but what about the little stuff? Handspring never really took off and you're going through a new phone every 18 months, it's time to get smart and take a look at Gazelle to see about getting cash for the small stuff or simply rid of that accumlated crap.
