With years of experience both purchasing and reselling used office furniture, Orca can assist businesses to liquidate their excess furniture using several methods depending on the furniture to be liquidated. These methods can include:
1. Purchase: After an inspection and evaluation of your furniture, Orca may make a direct purchase offer that includes removal from the site.
2. Consignment: Another method is a consignment agreement in which Orca receives a percentage of the sales price. This process typically includes creating marketing materials, postings on various local and national websites, direct marketing, and other means to source buyers. This method can include moving some or all of your furniture to Orca’s warehouse to create mockups for viewing without disruptions to your business.
3. Donations: Some items may not be deemed suitable for resale, but may still be of use to various non-profit organizations. Orca has helped connect its clients with organizations in need of office furniture, such as desks and chairs.
4. Disposal: For items deemed not suitable for any of the above options, disposal of the furniture may need to be considered. In this case, Orca would dispose of the items in the most economical and environmentally friendly manner. This can include recycling metal and wood, and keeping some parts for other uses.
