this weekend, movers from klutz & tripp moving will relocate our company headquarters from portland to a larger, better-equipped building in beaverton, approximately 25 minutes away.

the movers will pack up everything in your offices and cubicles. however, to make this transition as smooth as possible, please read and follow these instructions as we prepare for the big move:

• discard unnecessary papers and folders that are currently in your filing cabinets.
• put outdated legal documents, along with any other sensitive materials, in the large shredding bin outside of the break room. jody ritter in legal has advised us to shred all unneeded documents pertaining to company business.
• pack all personal items in the provided cardboard boxes. the movers will label, seal, and transport these boxes. note: you will need to transport any personal office plants yourself; the mover is not equipped to move them.

please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions or concerns about the move.

what is the main purpose of this notice?

• to outline the benefits of the new company building located in beaverton
• to instruct employees about steps to be taken for an upcoming move

Explanation:

Analyze the document type and audience

The text is a workplace notice dated June 25, 2026, addressed to "All Employees" from the Office Manager regarding an upcoming office relocation to Beaverton.

Evaluate the core message and instructions

The text states that movers will relocate the headquarters, but to make the transition smooth, employees must follow specific instructions: discarding unnecessary papers, shredding outdated legal documents, and packing personal items.

Assess the multiple-choice options

• Option 1 ("to outline the benefits...") is incorrect because the text only briefly mentions the new building is "larger, better-equipped" without focusing on outlining benefits.
• Option 2 ("to instruct employees about steps...") is correct because the main body consists of bulleted instructions for employees to prepare for the move.
• Option 3 ("to inform employees that they are responsible for moving their documents...") is incorrect because the movers are packing and transporting office items; employees only transport personal plants.

Answer:

• to outline the benefits of the new company building located in Beaverton
• to instruct employees about steps to be taken for an upcoming move (Correct answer)
• to inform employees that they are responsible for moving their documents and files
