When does renting office furniture make sense?

It is useful for temporary premises, a project team, renovation of the main office or testing a new format. The main advantage is that there is no need to store furniture after the end of the period.

Limited by availability of models, colors and quantities. Custom finishes are rarely compatible with short-term rentals.

When is the best time to buy?

For a permanent team, the purchase provides freedom of choice, a unified style and the possibility of additional equipment. Furniture remains an asset to the company, but it requires maintenance and solutions when moving.

High-quality modular series are easier to adapt to new layouts.

What is included in the total cost comparison?

For rentals, consider payments, deposit, delivery, assembly, replacement, returns, and damage liability. For purchase - price, logistics, installation, service, storage and possible residual value.

Make comparisons for the same period and the same level of quality.

  • period of use;
  • initial payment;
  • delivery and installation;
  • service and damage;
  • return or withdrawal of furniture.

How to make a decision for a specific office?

Write two scenarios based on the same specification and check the contract restrictions. If you need a purchase, PoMo will prepare project and commercial proposal; Availability of rental of specific models is specified separately.

Don't mix qualityCheap rental of simple furniture and purchase of a premium series is an incorrect comparison.
