Lots of free office desks (but you need to take lots!)

Caroline from Berhampore

Hi neighbours
We are replacing our current office desks - quite a few (around 30?) They are a decent quality but configured to be used in pods or groups eg 4 desks together, 6 desks together, 12 desks together. They are available for free providing you pick them up (dismantle?) by the end of April.… View more
Hi neighbours
We are replacing our current office desks - quite a few (around 30?) They are a decent quality but configured to be used in pods or groups eg 4 desks together, 6 desks together, 12 desks together. They are available for free providing you pick them up (dismantle?) by the end of April. They must go as groups - they don't work as single desks apart from one pair that go side by side. If anyone is interested in taking blocks of them you are welcome if you take the whole lot. They have cable trays and are white. No photo yet sorry! They are all around 140cm to 160c depending on how we grouped them. Not adjustable, standard height.
