=== Prepare your member box ===
 
If you have a member box:
* Make sure that it can be closed with the lid fitting properly
* Make sure it's clearly labeled with your name and membership reference number. You can find your reference number  at [https://london.hackspace.org.uk/members/ london.hackspace.org.uk/members/] after you have logged into the website.
* Remove any loose items from on, around or under your box - we won't have an easy way of moving them and it's likely that they will get lost or damaged. You should take responsibility for moving these yourself.
* Due to the move we are no longer accepting new boxes in the existing space. If there is a spare space on the member shelves please leave it empty. You'll be able to add new boxes at the new space after the move.
 
=== Prepare your loaned equipment ===
 
* Make sure it is labelled properly so it doesn't get lost
* If it is delicate or hard to move: prepare it for the move yourself, or even take it home for the duration of the move
 
=== Planning your deliveries ===
 
Since we will be mostly out of the existing space before 30 April, please take care when ordering items to be delivered to the current space. If there is any chance that  they will take more than a few weeks to arrive then don't have them sent to the space! We won't have access to the old building after we fully moved out.
