Advice for real workplaces

Useful answers, not furniture filler.

This is the home of My Used Furniture's practical buying guides, how-to resources and workplace advice. Each resource is built around the questions UK buyers face: what fits, what works, what to inspect and what needs planning before an order is placed.

The Office Ready approach

A better answer starts with context.

Used furniture is variable by nature. Good guidance therefore connects the item to its user, room, access route and intended service life. These five checks run through the Knowledge Centre.

01FitMeasure the furniture, room, occupied footprint and movement space.
02FunctionMatch features and capacity to the people and tasks involved.
03ConditionInspect the parts that carry load, move, lock, adjust or make contact.
04AccessPlan doors, corridors, lifts, stairs, assembly and final placement.
05AvailabilityConfirm matching quantities, included parts and current stock before planning around them.
