How do I select furniture?

We have expanded the offerings of the furniture contract.  We now have 3 suppliers who can meet all your furniture needs.  To supplement the office furniture selection, all three suppliers have additional products on contract – lounge furniture, ergonomic accessories, classroom furniture, specialty shelving, etc. 

All products are commercial grade with extended warranties.  And we don’t pay the prices you’ll see listed on the websites; we get a minimum 50% discount and more depending on the manufacturer and line.

You may contact the salespeople listed below directly.  They will be happy to provide additional information about specific products, pricing, assist with layouts, etc.  For any questions or further assistance, please contact Liz Chandler, 480.965.0578.

The selected firm will schedule an on-site measurement with you and will send you a quote within 3-4 days.  The quote will include directions on how to proceed with the process.

How do I pay for my order?

Furniture
Furniture quotes may be placed using an internal PO to “Furniture”.  A hard copy of the quote and PO must be faxed to 480.965.0586 or e-mailed to liz.chandler@asu.edu  Departments may also use their P-Card for orders placed with the 3 contract suppliers.  You should contact the supplier directly to process in this manner.

Flooring and Window Coverings
Orders for flooring and window coverings must be placed using an internal PO to “Carpet” due to the asbestos testing requirements. 

When will I receive my order?
Delivery time can range from 1 to 8 weeks depending on your selection. There are numerous ‘quick-ship' options in both furniture and flooring.  When you place an order for furniture, the supplier will contact you directly with status and coordination of installation.  Several contract suppliers have on-line resources for checking status.  When you place an order for flooring or window coverings, you should follow up with the specific flooring vendor to obtain status and coordination of installation. Their contact information will be on the cover sheet of your quote from them.

What else do I need to know?
Furniture moving, facility painting, and other remodeling work are the responsibility of your department. Your Furnishing Services representative can assist you by directing you to the appropriate on- or off-campus sources to help coordinate these activities.

Furnishing Services is located in the University Services Building, 1551 S. Rural Rd.
