Madison Liquidators adds cubicle desks from Office Star Products. With international shipping delays, and other inventory shortages that have plagued the last couple years, Madison Liquidators has added a new office cubicle desk system to its fresh 2023 lineup from partner Office Star Products (OSP).
Office furniture has been in short demand since the onset of the global pandemic. Supply chain issues have arisen over and over again, and no office furniture has felt the squeeze more than office cubicle desks. There have been times where office cubicle desk systems haven’t been available at all on the marketplace of Madison Liquidators, but OSP has answered the cal (Read More)

Executive chairs just sit different. Pardon my slang, but it’s true. Executive chairs are considered to be high end office furniture that belongs in the big office. However, just because the name is executive chair doesn’t mean that they can only be found in an executive office. Any office can enjoy the upscale design of these desk chairs. So, anyone who needs a more comfortable or more ergonomically designed office chair should consider purchasing one.
One of our partners- Boss Office Products a leader in office furniture, has quite a few exceptional executive chairs available on the Madison Liquidators online marketplace. I picked out six of my personal fav (Read More)

If you follow my writing then you know that I have been a little more than heavy-handed in highlighting modern office design lately. I absolutely love it and often find inspiration within that medium. However, today, I wanted to break the cycle and go completely against the grain and touch on a traditional office design.
While several of our partners have some great traditional office design elements, I will be focusing in on just one brand partner and only one of their office furniture series. That partner we will be discussing is Office Star Products and their Townsend series of traditional office designed office furniture. Before we get into it, let’s look at (Read More)

Our partner, Office Star Products, recently sent us their Napa Laminate series of office furniture with over two hundred office furniture selections in it.

Recently, I shared information on the Office Star Product’s Townsend series of traditional office design desks. We have received a lot of positive feedback concerning this office furniture line. Not only that, there has been an overwhelmingly positive reaction to the traditional office design style. It seems that the Summer of 2023 is seeing a resurgence of the traditional office design; which had previously taken a backseat to more modern and contemporary design styles. In case you missed it, you can catch up with the original Townsend series traditional office design desks by reading the original story here.

Post pandemic many jobs are homebased. It is an excellent alternative to the daily commute and the stress that comes with it. Let’s be honest, who doesn’t love working in their underwear without the worry of being reported to human resources? Moving on…
I work from home, and have done so for two years now. I cannot put into words how much I truly enjoy it. Quality of life has improved. No more waking up two hours before work to get ready and drive. No more scraping frost off my windshield. But more than that, being a homebody… I just enjoy being in my own home!
A lot of us have had to make this choice, some out of necessity from the pandemic. Not everyone had a (Read More)

Returning to my obsession with white office furniture for this year, I thought that I would take a look at white desks this time but with a twist. I’ll share that twist a little later but before I do, I want to set the tone by looking first at a fantastic example of everything great about a white desk. Before we begin, I want to highlight what to expect from these white desks.
Openness, clean lines, and warmth are all ways I would describe a vibrant office with a white desk. According to office.furniture “A white finish can open up the office, especially when in conjuncture with natural lighting. The partnership of these two properties changes a space treme (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)

Versatility with the office furniture can be a bonus for a growing office. Take the L shaped desk for example. If we purchase one for the space we are in now, wouldn’t it be great if it fit the next office space we put it in even if the configuration of the desk is required to be different? I know it’s a luxury to be able to think that far ahead but with most L shaped desks, you don’t have to worry they are naturally reversible.
While some L shaped desks are designed for a very specific layout, most are designed to be reversible to fit any office space. Today, I want to draw your attention to the benefit of purchasing a reversible L shaped desk so tha (Read More)

Executive offices require special office furniture, right? What’s the point of being in the big office if you can’t enjoy the benefits? If we take the 1980s yuppie phrase of “work hard, play harder” then we can assume that we should reward ourselves for making it to the top of the business. Okay, so that tongue in cheek spill was my attempt at humor, but the underlying message is true. Executive office furniture is built to higher standards than regular office furniture with the executive in mind.
Let’s take executive office chairs for example. You will find larger office chairs with more comfort considerations built in, and more luxury ma (Read More)

A great option for a small or growing business in lieu of a conference room is a bow front desk for the office. If you are meeting a small number of people, the bow front desk works as a de facto conference table. Designed specifically for the purpose of meeting guests in your own office, it allows you to function as a full-sized business in limited office space.
Several years ago, I worked for a small but successful land surveying company. The boss had a bow front desk in his office, and it functioned exactly this way. If we had to have a party chief meeting, it was done across his bow front desk. If we met with clients, it was done there. Also, on those rain days whe (Read More)

New inventory comes in just about everyday to the online marketplace of Madison Liquidators. It has been a while since I have done a rundown of the new inventory available, so I will do it now under the premise of furnishing a home office on a budget only from the newest items to come to Madison Liquidators.
First thing I want to do is a traditional desk and chair setup. Since this is a home office on a budget, I will not worry with too many accessories. Working on a budget of around a thousand, and I realize that may seem like a lot of money and trust me it is… but I am looking for professional grade office furniture that is built to last. Not some cheap retail versio (Read More)

I’d like to continue our look into white office furniture. Our previous look was at white reception desk ideas which affects the front office the most. This time I want to look at white conference tables. From the front office to the inner circle of most office settings.
According to Office.Furniture white is “a symbol of innocence, wholesomeness, and completion” and “conveys a lot of ideals about trustworthiness, honesty, and home.” In effect white is a go to color for an office that wants to project cleanliness, style, and substance. With this in mind, we will be looking at four white conference table ideas. But one does not simply selec (Read More)

Since joining Madison Liquidators in January of 2021, I have researched and written about just about every office furniture piece or setting you can think of. I have taken real life situations and relayed them into text for the benefit of an office furniture consumer. I do this in hope of giving someone some insight into their next office furniture purchase… that, and that’s what Madison Liquidators pays me to do. So today, I thought I would do more of the same.
In a previous job, I worked for a national construction recruiting business. They have offices in most major cities, and when I started, they were reopening an office in Birmingham, Alabama. The 2008 economic (Read More)

Boss Office Products brings an intriguing and unexpected new desk chair for 2022. When I say unexpected for professional offices that are widely known primarily for their use of neutral colors, I mean they break the mold! Pink office chairs! Pink office chairs… I had to say it twice because it’s hard to believe. In a world of blacks, whites, and grays, Boss Office Products throws pink into the mix. Pink! A bold move to say the least. A move that I believe many will find appealing in pink office furniture.
Pink office chairs at first glance can be a jarring look in an office setting, but in today’s more personable office setting can fit in the rig (Read More)

In meetings with specialists at Madison Liquidators, I had time to compare notes on office cabinets. It’s always interesting to see what another set of eyes will catch and what you may have missed and vise versa. Storage cabinets are often overlooked when doing “big picture” office furniture furnishing but in the end, office cabinet storage always finds a way to the forefront of the minds of everyone in a business environment. So with this writing, we are going to highlight different kinds of storage cabinets that are found on the Madison Liquidators online marketplace.

Over 66% of households own a pet according to the American Pet Products Association, with Millennials taking the largest share of pet ownership at 33%. Compare that to Team Stage data which states that millennials make up 35% (or 1/3) of the current workforce, which means that a good portion of the workforce probably consider themselves to be pet parents.
Since the pandemic, a lot of the benefits of home pet ownership have come to light, and for the workplace the same applies. A few different studies have explored what kind of effect having an office pet (or a few) has had on workers, with a multitude of positive results. Here are the 3 most surprising ins (Read More)

Office furniture accessories are often overlooked when we first furnish an office. I get it, our attention is elsewhere like finding the perfect desk for each office or ensuring that all the desks from the receptionist to the executive hold a singular cohesive style throughout the office. Which are important tasks in their own right. However, a stylish office isn’t the only aspect of an office that needs to be addressed up front.
The other side of that coin is functionality. An office that looks stylish but is disorganized is not a healthy work environment at all. Instead, a little time should be given to ensure that the office functions as well as it looks. A fu (Read More)

A growing office needs to have versatility. They need the ability to transition from one phase to the next swiftly. While there are a lot of variables that go into a transition such as this, one of the best ways to make it easier is to have office furniture that can change with each move. For larger desks such as the U shaped desks versatility means being reversible. For a U shaped desk, being reversible means that the bridge, which is the centerpiece connecting the front and back of the desk can be placed on either side as needed.
A reversible U shaped desk will ensure that with each move, the office furniture will be able to fit within any office setting. Not only th (Read More)

Minimalist Definition
What are your first thoughts about minimalism?
Having only a few items? Wearing only black t-shirts?
Or is it more along the lines of being intentional about what you purchase?
According to the well-known 'The Minimalists,' Minimalism is:
"a tool to rid yourself of life's excess in favor of focusing on what's important - so you can find happiness, fulfillment, and freedom."
For those that practice minimalism in their lives, they want to simplify their way of living, truly enjoy what they have and eliminate the stress that comes with owning and acquiring more and more. This may seem like a (Read More)

The pedestal desk. It’s the oldest and most widely used desk shape in all of human history. There’s not much thought that needs to be put into it right? I mean a desk that has been used for centuries must be easy to pick because they are traditional pieces of office furniture that can’t be improved upon, or can it? That’s a great question, Madison Liquidators have excellent pedestal desks that are very traditional in their appearance such as this pedestal desk shell.

Office collaboration is important. Increasingly offices are moving to a more open and inclusive office layout. Traditional cubicle layouts are being phased out in favor of opening up the workspace in favor of open spaces that feature increased natural lighting brought on by the elimination of huge light blocking partitioned walls.

With so many options out there, we are providing a sample of some of the top collaborative workstations available today. This list is a great place to begin a search for this type of office furniture. (Read More)

The Importance of Office End Tables
Imagine that you just started your business. You're growing, expanding, and ready to open a dedicated space, but you need the right furniture. Desks, office chairs, storage hutches, or file cabinets, are all a given.
If you have a waiting room area, an office couch and guest chairs are also must-haves. But an often time overlooked piece of essential furniture is office side tables. Why are they overlooked? It may have something to do with not being seen as necessary or essential.
In your office, you need to get work done and somewhere to sit. So a desk and chair is a no-brainer. But when furnishing the reception area or office lo (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)

As I have covered conference tables from our inventory, I will often throw in a bonus of a fresh/trendy new design. However, after looking at them again I dare say that they are no longer a trend but a modern office furniture choice that is here to stay. I am talking about standing conference tables. What did I say? STANDING conference tables. (Perhaps I should put it in bold…)
Yes, standing office furniture is making a huge push in the market these days and as 2023 rolls around, I do not see them slacking off at all. This move towards a more active office work lifestyle comes to the conference room which is the natural next progression from the personal sit stand des (Read More)

Everyday for at least 8 hours you go to work, sit down and don't get up again until it's time to leave. But have you ever given any thought to what you're sitting on?
If you're like most people, the office furniture provided for you by your company is the office furniture you use. Or conversely, if you are the company, you probably purchased the office furniture you need based on price and volume. That means that you may not be getting the most comfortable, ergonomic, or quality office chair.
This could be a problem.
To spend most of our lives sitting, which takes a toll on the body, while also not paying any attention to what exactly it is we're si (Read More)

The modern office design is increasingly popular in offices across North America these days. One of the main reasons is the design fits so well in the open office concept. From its minimalist layout to the sleek lines, and bold colors there’s just something about an office that is wide open, bathed in natural light that just naturally creates an inclusive and cooperative office. To borrow the words of Forest Gump- modern office design and open office concept “go together like peas and carrots.”
When starting a modern office design, it is best to start with the centerpiece of the office, which is the desk. The most popular desk style today is the (Read More)

Recently I was given the chance to select a new office chair for my home office. I am an employee of Madison Liquidators that works remotely from home. I spent a week in the office back in June and while there I had the opportunity to try out several office chairs to make an educated decision.

Storage furniture is a particularly vital component of a fully functioning professional office. However, office storage furniture is often one of the most forgotten aspects of office furniture when furnishing an office.

With that in mind, we have decided to highlight a few commonly purchased storage furniture solutions for the office. These selections were carefully chosen for their storage ability, and knack for completing an office. Everything from bookcases to credenzas (Read More)

This is my regular reminder that sit stand desks exist and improve the health of the office worker. I was talking with a friend who is an office worker from home the other day and she was complaining about how sitting down so much has made her seek out the aid of a chiropractor about once a quarter. This immediately got me championing sit stand desks as a healthy alternative that can give her much needed movement daily while still remaining just as productive. She said she had heard of them but thought they were more of a novelty than an actual fundamental change that I view them as.

This not only enhances the overall ambiance of the office but also communicates a sense of order and coherence to clients, employees, and visitors.
