What Does Office Furniture Cost?
The cost of office furniture can vary widely depending on quality, features, and finishes. On average, ergonomic task chairs range from $450 to $1,300, while desks and work surfaces such as a 6’ × 6’ L-shaped desk typically fall between $900 and $7,000. For complete workstations or systems furniture, businesses should expect to budget about $1,800 to $5,000 per workstation. Final pricing depends heavily on storage options, material selections, and ergonomic adjustments, but these ranges give a realistic idea of what to expect when budgeting for a new office.

How Long Does It Take to Order and Receive Office Furniture?
All in all, you should expect it to take between 7-10 weeks to buy office furniture from the first conversation with an Account Manager until your furniture is fully installed.
If trying to estimate how long it will take to receive your furniture from the date you placed your order, you should budget 5-7 weeks.
Keep in mind that this timeline can stretch longer depending on customization, special finishes, overseas manufacturing, and scheduling constraints.

FAQs
What’s the difference between commercial-grade office furniture and retail furniture from IKEA or Staples?
Commercial-grade office furniture is engineered for durability, customization, and high daily use, whereas retail / “residential-grade” furniture (like IKEA or Staples) is built for lighter use, limited options, and lower cost. Commercial pieces come with stronger warranties, customizable finishes, higher quality materials, and are designed to endure heavy traffic over many years. Learn more.
Do I need a dealer, or can I buy directly from manufacturers?
While you can order directly from manufacturers, working with a knowledgeable local furniture dealer adds significant value. Dealers give you access to exclusive brands, full customization options (finishes, fabrics, configurations), and handle project services like space planning, procurement, and coordination. They also manage deliveries, trained installations, and long-term support so you don’t have to become a logistics expert. Learn more.
How much office space do I need?
The amount of office space you need depends on your layout, company culture, and type of work. On average, businesses allocate 150–175 sq. ft. per employee, though this varies: private offices range from 120–400 sq. ft., collaborative areas need 30–50 sq. ft. per person, and conference rooms average 25–30 sq. ft. per seat. Shared spaces like reception, break rooms, and support areas like storage or server rooms typically account for 20–30% of total office space.
What makes office furniture ergonomic?
Ergonomic office furniture is designed to support the body’s natural posture and reduce strain during long hours of work. Key features include adjustable seat height and lumbar support in chairs, sit-stand desks for posture changes, and accessories like monitor arms or keyboard trays that align workstations to the user. The goal is to improve comfort, reduce injury risks, and increase productivity. Learn more.
How do I pick the right furniture for a small office / maximize my office footprint?
In smaller offices, maximizing footprint starts with choosing multifunctional and modular furniture such as nesting chairs, mobile tables, or desks with integrated storage. Vertical storage solutions like shelves and wall-mounted units free up floor space, while smart desk placement against walls or near windows creates better flow. By combining compact, flexible furniture with efficient layout planning, even small offices can feel open, functional, and productive. Learn more.
