It costs around $4,200 per employee to outfit a startup business. This includes desk, chair, electrical and so on. But whether you are a startup, moving locations, upsizing or renovating, buying used office furniture can save you a good chunk of money.
Read on for practical tips to help you buy used furniture with confidence.
There are many benefits to buying used office furniture. Not only is it less expensive, but it is also better for the environment. Often, used furniture is being sold because a company is moving locations, having renovations or no longer needs those particular items. Many times, those used office chairs, office desks, and used file cabinets are like new.
Yet, you don’t want to spend money on items that will wear out or break after just a few months. You want to invest in used furniture that is reliable. So make sure what you’re buying is made of quality materials.
Some furniture pieces you need right now for your office. Other items won’t be vital at this time. Make a list of what furniture you need now and what can wait. You may find that items you thought you needed, you don’t anymore down the road. Or you may change your mind about the right item for a particular spot in the office. It’s always a good idea to give yourself time to mull it over before committing on items.
Even though used furniture is less expensive than buying it brand new, it can still be a large expense. Especially if you are outfitting an entire office. To avoid buyer’s remorse, have a used furniture budget and stay within it. Even if you find a deal that seems too good to be true.
Having a firm budget will help you focus on the necessities and keep you out of financial trouble.
When you are shopping for used furniture from reputable sellers, you can usually count on them to enforce strict quality controls to ensure the furniture is in good working order. Yet, for your own peace of mind, it’s a good idea to always ask questions. Find out how old the used file cabinets or used office chairs are.
Ask where it was used and how it was stored. This will help you understand how much wear and tear the used furniture has been exposed to.
When you are shopping for used furniture, quality is key. A sturdy, name-brand piece of furniture will give you a lot more use than a cheaply made item that won’t last long. It’s always a good idea to inspect used furniture in person. That way you can look at hinges and casters and see how smoothly they roll.
You can check out the padding in used office chairs and make sure the gas pumps work properly.
Used office furniture can be a great asset to your office. We hope these tips help you understand how to shop for used furniture in a thoughtful and wise manner.

Worn out chairs and stained desks can make an office environment unpleasant, uncomfortable, and lower productivity.
When people spend the majority of their day in the office, it’s important to furnish it properly and with your employee’s needs in mind. However, new chairs, desks, monitors, etc. can be extremely expensive and rack up a giant bill if your office consists of more than just a few people.
If you’re thinking about refurbishing an office space but don’t want to spend an arm and a leg to do so, look no further! We’ll give you the details on why used office furniture is the way to go.
This is a no-brainer, but the main reason why people opt to buy used furniture is that it is much cheaper than new furniture. If you take time to look around and find the best deals, you’ll be able to furnish an entire office with high-quality pieces that have a smaller price tag than buying new.
Most used office furniture has only been used for a couple of years and still has a lot of life left. Shopping for used furniture can help you find some gems that have been discarded, like ergonomic chairs or brand new sit-to-stand desks.
Shopping second hand is the most sustainable way to shop. You are giving a pre-loved item a new home, so it will not end up in a landfill or in the ocean. Small things, like buying used office furniture when possible, can make a significant environmental impact.
Second-hand furniture is usually delivered much faster than new furniture because it doesn’t need to be ordered. Additionally, used office furniture is usually already assembled. These two factors make it extremely convenient to purchase used items since you can start using them as soon as they are delivered and they take no effort to assemble.
Used furniture may come from someone’s homes or may have been used as floor models. This means it has probably never been used or rarely used and is in excellent condition. And, your employees will probably have no idea that it was bought second-hand!
Furnishing an office space is a daunting task. You want to make sure everyone’s needs are being met without breaking the bank. Used office furniture is a great alternative for small budgets and an option for those who are more environmentally conscious.
If this sounds like you, give used furniture a shot! We offer high-quality, used office furniture at a great price and can help you mix and match used furniture with new furniture pieces to create a space for your team that increases productivity and happiness in the office!

Are you trying to put together a work space on a budget? Did you know that an office space can directly effect the success of your business? When it comes to furnishing and designing an office space, your goal is to create an office that maximizes productivity and company morale. However, the cost of a high quality work space can add up pretty quickly. Fortunately, there are some ways to create a highly functioning office on a budget.
Here are three ways you can get the most out of your budget, while also maximizing your company’s efficiency.
In order to make sure that you get the most out of your budget, the first step is to make a list of everything you will need, starting with the most important. You and your coworkers might not need top-of-the-line, Italian leather chairs; but you certainly need desks. Start with the absolute necessities and work your way down to the not-so-necessary items. Once you have made your list, then you should have an idea of what kind of furniture you will need in order to fill your office space. You should also know what is within your budget.
When it comes to furnishing your office, you might be tempted to buy the cheapest furniture you can find. While this might sound like a good idea, poorly made furniture can have many negative unintended consequences, such as:
Because of these reasons and moe, you need to make sure that you do your research in order to find furniture that’s not only affordable, but also comfortable, ergonomic, and high quality.
When it comes to furnishing an office space on a budget, perhaps the best choice for your office is used furniture. Buying used office furniture can provide you with tasteful, high quality, ergonomic furniture that is well within your budget.

Thousands of people in the office furniture business are in Chicago today at the final day of the 44th annual NeoCon — the National Exposition of Contract Furnishings show at the Merchandise Mart.
This is where we find all of the new innovations in office furniture and design that we will be including in our office plans for the coming year. In the weeks ahead, we’ll be sharing some of the new products introduced at the show that we will be carrying very soon.
In general, what’s happening this year? Well, Byron S. Morton, vice president of leasing for Merchandise Mart Properties, described the changes in the market as a move toward the collaboration of “live and work.” One of this year’s office trends is making the office feel more like home.
“What does the iPad generation need — or not need? They need connectivity and don’t need big bulky furniture,” Morton said.
We’ve seen a huge interest in hospital and medical furniture over the past years, and expect new things in this area as well. Re-visit our site in a couple of weeks, and we’ll show you what new things are heading to our showroom.
Remember the old TV commercial where actress Sally Struthers asked us if we wanted to make more money? And the answer was, “Sure, we all do.” Here are a few ways for you to make more money, without a whole lot of effort (Thanks to ABCO, one of our fine office furniture suppliers)
Buy Fluorescent Light Bulbs
Fluorescent bulbs use less energy, emit less heat and last longer than those incandescent bulbs.
Weather Strip Doors and Windows
You may even be eligible for a tax deduction.
Recycle Paper
There are two sides to every piece of paper. Just avoid re-using paper with confidential info on it. Shred that.
Turn Your Equipment Off
At one time, the computer people told us to leave our computers on. Now, it is perfectly OK to turn them off or put them into sleep mode when not in use.
Replace Your Inkjet with a Laser
Laser printers aren’t expensive to buy, and they cost a whole lot less to use than ink jets.
Use a Programmable Thermostat
Set it once and forget it. Why heat the office or showroom if no one’s there?
Another way to save money is with used office furniture, the good kind that we carry here at Workspace Solutions. Check out our used page here.
