Madison Liquidators has grown a lot since I first started back in January of 2021. To me, it’s a little wild how far we have come since then. Before I get into anything, I don’t want you to think this is going to be some braggadocious article that I threw together. This isn’t an arrogant, boastful fluff piece to stroke mine or anyone’s ego. More or less, this is to tell you how proud I am to be a part of the growth that we have seen, and I will tell you why in just a second. But first, since I have been with Madison Liquidators, we have sold office furniture to some of the biggest names in finance, business, and industry. We sold conference ta (Read More)

Storage is always a priority around the office. I like to say there are two types of office workers. 1- the person with a nice and neat desktop but has a mess in their desk drawers and 2- the person whose desktop is a mess but their drawers are in immaculate order. There is no in-between… or if someone is actually able to pull both off, they are very sketchy… a suspect even!!! However, additional storage can help alleviate some of these organizational issues. But what comes with a standalone storage unit is the need for privacy so that you can ensure that everything that you place in there stays in there. With that in mind, I thought I would look at some (Read More)

Office organization is extremely important to an office worker. An unorganized workspace is an office that is not efficient; not only that but most times this situation can lead to a less than professional appearance for the business. To keep a professional appearance, the office must be free of clutter while with everything in its place. As I say often to my children- a place for everything, everything in its place (thank you Ben Franklin.} That means that every office needs both trash bins and adequate storage. Today, I would like to focus on one form of storage to help organize an office- Lateral file cabinets. Lateral file cabinets are a newer take on the tradition (Read More)

The traditional style desk is usually made from natural wood and blends with the traditional office decor of wood furniture, plush carpeting and perhaps even dimmed lighting. You can still have a traditional office space featuring a warm, cherry desk and blend in more modern finishes such as tiled floors, large windows, and plenty of natural light. Oak is the more traditional look for the dark, natural wood desks in traditional office spaces. A cherry desk offers a warm, bright finish and enhances the office without detracting from the feel and design of the natural wood desk. A cherry desk projects charm and elegance and is a functional and beautiful addition to any tra (Read More)

Four people seems to be the perfect group size. The Beatles, the Fantastic Four, the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, The Seinfeld cast, South Park, and the Four Horsemen (the wrestling stable, not the apocalyptic version) are the cream of the crop of foursomes. But what about the office world? Doesn’t it seem like most businesses have that definitive foursome that works well together? Absolutely! But how can we take this foursome to the next level? For the remainder of this blog, I will reference my favorite quartet of all time- The Golden Girls. One of our brand partners, Corp Design has released to us the Veloce Series that features several four person workstation (Read More)

With the rise of the open office concept came unintended consequences; namely noise pollution. Open spaces are conducive to sound reverberating in the empty spaces and carrying way further than in a traditional office. This issue is often overlooked until the office is set up with all the workers performing their duties, in other words- too late. However, there is a solution that has been engineered to greatly reduce office noise, sound absorbent tiles. Both ceiling and wall tiles have been brought to the Madison Liquidators online marketplace through our partner MergeWorks and their EchoDeco series. We will take a brief look at this sound absorbent office solution. Firs (Read More)

Unpopular opinion: display cases are an underrated and often forgotten office furniture item. Why is that? Oftentimes, when we begin to furnish an office, we think about all the things that help us get our work done. When we design our spaces, we also consider the impression they will give to clients and visitors. In both of these instances, people forget the functionality and uses that an office display case can offer to a space to help give the right impression. A great place to start to bring this often-forgotten piece of essential office furniture is with the basics. --subscription-box--   Ideal Uses for Display Cases What is a display case even for?

This Product is discontinued, for the new under desk cable management system available now, click the link A New Under Desk Cable Management System is Available I want to make this short, sweet and to the point! All of us who work from desks have a universal issue when it comes to our workstations- cable management. No matter our working situation, we always seem to have wires going everywhere.

Many of us have resorted to Velcro straps, or zip ties, or even duct tape to mount (Read More)

Floor space is in demand in most offices and often people center their focus on the maximum use of the available floor space. Using a desk with bookshelf can reduce clutter as well and reduce the amount of floor space used for storage. Office walls are generally not used for much besides a piece of art or a whiteboard or corkboard in most offices. Where space is at a premium, why would you take up unnecessary space with filing cabinets, cupboards and other storage areas when a bookcase can give you the best of both worlds? This reduces clutter, improves efficiency and enhances productivity in the office. Vertical storage at the site of your desk is a great way to keep e (Read More)

Space, like Time, is Money Offices are supposed to be productive workplaces and, while a little bit of chatting can allow for teamwork, share the workload and brighten up your day, at times there just is not enough focus in the workplace. So, what can be done to help this? Space, like time, is money. And, as such, many businesses cannot afford more office space. This is where a different office set up may help. Desk Pods are a way of creating collaborative workspace but also allowing screening and privacy so that workers can work more productively. Productivity: Doing More in Less Time Nowadays, people often hear the adage of doing more in less time. In order to do mor (Read More)

If your office desk is like most people's, it can be inundated with a whole host of electronic devices, from computer screens and laptops to charging phones and air pods. While cable management solutions are great for organization, what is the best system for charging multiple devices? --subscription-box-- Enter The Charging Station. A charging station, or office charging station, is a device or system designed to recharge electronic devices in a workplace setting. It's similar to an extension cord in that it utilizes multiple outlets. The benefit of newer models of charging stations is that they don't sit on the floor but are made in space-saving shapes, such (Read More)
