Save Money With Second-Hand Office Furniture

Save Money With Second Hand Office Furniture

When purchasing office furniture, it can be difficult to get the look and feel that you want without paying tons of money for it. However, if you’re open to the second-hand office furniture market, you can find some real gems at a fraction of the cost of new. Let’s discuss the best ways to bag yourself some second-hand office furniture bargains.

Second-Hand Designer Office Chairs

One of the best ways to make big savings is by checking out second-hand designer office chairs. Classically reliable brands such as Herman Miller, Ergohuman, Enjoy, Orangebox, and Boss, often worth hundreds or thousands of pounds when new, can be found at heavily discounted prices.

The best way to ensure you get the best value for money when opting for a second-hand office chair is to go to an office furniture showroom to view and try it out before you buy it. This way you can check out its condition, make sure it all looks and functions they way it should, and maybe even haggle with the salesperson there, to see if you can get a better price.

Another way to save yourself hundreds or even thousands of pounds is to go for used sofas for your breakout, waiting, or reception areas. Again, ideally you would view and try the sofa(s) in a showroom first, if possible. That way you could potentially get a luxurious leather sofa for half the price of the new, or a trusted brand-named sofa, such as Boss, Orangebox, or Vitra, at way below the RRP.

Second-Hand Meeting Booths

One of the latest hugely popular trends to sweep the office world is the meeting or acoustic booth. Largely designed to allow for more privacy when working alone or in a group, these pods can cost upwards of 10K when new. However, if you go for the same booth used, it will save you thousands of pounds.

Second-hand meeting booths often come with built-in power modules, meeting tables, and cable management, and they can usually be viewed in office furniture showrooms, to help make sure you’re comfortable with your purchase before you go ahead with it.

Used Mobile Pedestals

Second-Hand Office Storage

While you can make savings on cupboards, bookcases, and filing cabinets when purchasing second-hand office storage, the biggest savings can usually be made on mobile under-desk pedestals. These sturdy little steel cabinets can cost over £150 + vat when new, but you can often find them in very good condition used, for less than a third of that price.

If you’re kitting out an entire office and you shop around shrewdly, ensuring you check out all the available second-hand office furniture options, you are bound to make huge savings. Plus there’s the added bonus of knowing that by recycling instead of buying new, you’re helping in a small way to help preserve the planet.
