Update on ReStore move as of 9-7-12

Things are going along well.  There have been a few more delays in getting the building ready for us to take possession.  We are now expecting to have access to the building by the end of this month.  Once that occurs we will have a lot of work to do to get the store ready for its opening.

First we need to get fixtures installed.  We will have to purchase racks for the new store.  The company that is selling us the racks will install them also.  That will occur right after we gain access and should only take a couple of days. 

We have stored some large donations that did not fit in our current location and those items will be moved to the Prices Corner location and be unloaded.  We expect that to take a few weeks to unload and price those items and get them placed in the store.  Dunkley Discount Movers has offered to spend a day helping us move.  We are also hoping to get a group from Americorps to help for the first couple of weeks that we are moving things into the new store. 

Towards mid to late October we will have everything out of the store.  This includes everything from the office, the register, and all fixtures as well as items for sale.  The new store should be ready to open by early November.
