How to Get Rid of Used Office Furniture Before a Move

Get Rid of Used Office FurnitureNow that you’re relocating your company from the Phoenix area, you may have a lot of used office furniture that’s not needed at the new location. That leaves the question of what to do with it all. Before you even consider your options, however, you’ll want to take an accurate inventory of all your used furniture – especially if you’re a large company – and have one or several people create a spreadsheet or database.

Once you know which office furniture you have to get rid of, you can begin doing so in an efficient and methodical manner. These are different ways that you can dispose of your used office furniture (it’s recommended that you do so in the order they’re listed):

  1. Sell or offer to your employees – Selling or giving your used office furniture is one of the easiest ways to clear it out. If you decide to sell, it’s recommended that you give your employees a nice discount. Giving your employees the first opportunity to acquire your used furniture will not only help dispose of it but will also help create goodwill with them.
  2. Sell to a used office furniture shop – You can sell whatever is left over to one of the many used office furniture shops in the Phoenix area. Most office furniture companies will also remove the furniture for you, saving you the time and hassle.
  3. Recycling your office furniture – If you still have office furniture leftover or don’t wish to deal with a used office furniture store, you can also recycle the remaining furniture. Recycling centers are always looking for plastic, metal, wood, and cloth, all of which are found in most office furniture.
  4. Donating the remainder – Giving away your office furniture is also an option. Not only will you help the surrounding community, but you will also be eligible for a tax write-off.
