Recycled Office Furnishings — Local services in Santa Fe Springs

I was tired of flimsy plastic units to organize small parts in my shop. I was also dreading emptying my wallet at McMaster for a single metal cabinet, so I decided to stop by this place first. So glad I went here before buying new! I had such a great time browsing this shop and ogling over everything. Brian really took the time to show me the inventory, and spoke to us like an old friend. I came in to get a single cabinet and ended up loading the truck with 6 metal drawer units and a giant laboratory camera dolly - on the same budget I had for 1 new unit elsewhere. This place has absolutely everything for a workspace. Chairs, cabinets, desks, tables, filing cabinets, drawer units, and way more than I could even list. Beautiful vintage industrial items as well as newer used stuff. Everything feels hand-picked and every piece feels like it has a story. Some units still have remnants of their former lives - laboratory components, obsolete instruction leaflets, index cards, name tags, etc. I could have stayed there all day listening to Brian talk about furniture. This gem should be better known, one of those places that restores your love...

I recently visited this store to purchase a chair as a gift. I was initially told the chair I wanted was priced at $350, which I thought was a great deal. However, after expressing my interest, the salesperson made a call and informed me that the price was actually $500 because it was brand new. Since it was Christmas Eve and I needed the chair, I agreed to pay the higher price.

Unfortunately, when I delivered the chair, the recipient pointed out that it did not appear to be new, and there were issues with the assembly. Specifically, the arms were installed incorrectly as they move parallel to each other rather than mirroring one another, making them annoying to use.

I was disappointed by the miscommunication regarding the price and the condition of the chair. While the staff was polite, I felt a bit misled and let down by the overall experience. I hope the store addresses these kinds of issues in the future to ensure a smoother experience for...

Bottom Line: Head to ‘Recycled Office’ for all your office furniture needs. We are so glad we found them for our Torrance office. Much closer than all the other furniture re-sellers located out in Rancho Cucamonga.

Staff: Eliana and Chuy (Jesus) were very helpful. Eliana listened to my needs and my budget, and walked me through their warehouse to show me items that would be at my price point. Once we made our pedestal cabinet and office chair selections, Chuy helped me load them into my SUV.

Selection: This place is LOADED with Steelcase, HermanMiller, Haworth, and Allsteel goods. Lots of styles to choose from that are lightly used and refurbed. If you love vintage mid-century furniture you’ll love their vintage Steelcase chairs and desks. This place had exactly what we were looking for.

Price: We paid around $600 for goods that retail...
