BidProwl Summary
Two three-drawer lateral file cabinets in charcoal, 42"w x 18"d x 40"h, with an 84" laminate countertop adhered with double-stick tape, all in salvage condition. Office furniture resellers and used office supply dealers buy these for refurbishment and resale, or strip them for parts depending on market demand. Before bidding confirm the countertop separation won't damage the cabinet finish, verify drawer rail functionality and lock operation, and plan logistics carefully since you must provide all removal equipment and labor with strict September 1-15 pickup windows.
