- Make an inventory of items you do not want
Do a survey of your office and Inventory with photos all the furniture (and equipment) that you no longer have any need for. Assign a staff member to take charge of this task. Larger offices might find it easier to assign one person per floor. When possible, corralling of these items to one section of the floor or building can expedite their removal for disposal or otherwise. However you are moving these pieces clearly mark them for disposal so that nothing that is not intended for disposal gets removed. Once you have your list, you can move on to the next step which is getting rid of the items for disposal. - Have an office furniture sale for your employees
One of the simplest methods of office furniture disposal is to sell it off or give to employees (and their relatives and friends). Often they are looking for items like chairs and tables, storage items, workstations, etc. and will be more than willing to take them off your hands. Giving your employees the first choice has more than one advantage. It creates goodwill and allows you to get rid of unwanted items at no cost to you. - Sell to used furniture stores
Your next option would be to sell or trade the remaining items to used furniture dealers. They will often negotiate with you against the cost of removal. These dealers are looking for large quantities and product that is in resalable condition. - Donate to a charity, get tax benefits
