Office Supplies
When you are ready to move to your new office, there are a few things you’ll need to purchase. Here is a list of items you’ll need to stock up on:

Look for a chair with adjustable height, tilt, and recline options. Along with your chair, you will want to purchase some glass chair mats. These will protect the flooring beneath your chair and make it easier to get in and out of your chair. Ultimately, a mat under your chair makes you more comfortable at your desk.
-A workstation: If you’re going to be working on your computer most of the time, you’ll need a functional and attractive workspace. Consider purchasing an Ikea desk or a modular workstation from companies.
-A printer: It’s important to have a printer in your office so you can print documents and reports. Look for a printer that can handle large files and has wireless connectivity so you can print from anywhere in your office.

Cooling equipment: A cooling unit will help keep your office temperature comfortable. You can choose a stand-alone unit or an air conditioner/heater combo.
Heating equipment: A heating unit will help warm up the room during cold weather or during the morning when people start arriving for work. You can choose a stand-alone unit or an air conditioner/heater combo.
