If you’ve decided to close or downsize your office location, you’re definitely not alone. According to a survey taken in August 2021, 69% of U.S. businesses had permanently closed some or all of their offices since March 2020, and an additional 41% of businesses chose to downsize their office space.
The primary reason? A transition to remote or hybrid work. The same survey found that the top reason why businesses have permanently closed their office space over the past two years was because a majority of their employees wanted to work from home. Other businesses closed their office locations to save money or to protect employees’ health (due to the COVID-19 pandemic).
Regardless of why you’re closing or downsizing your office space, doing so likely leaves you with a lot of office equipment you’re not sure what to do with. We can help with that.
3 Ways Comprenew Can Help Make Closing or Downsizing Your Office Easier and Safer
Comprenew can help with the safe disposition and decommissioning of your office IT equipment and assets in three ways:
