ifI Cant Afford to Purchase a Desk

[Denarella]

right now, what size filing cabinet will do? I have a computer desk with only two small drawers and is kind of the home computer desk. My step son has requested a laptop from his dad for his rookie days of college so hopefully that will free up some time at the desk for me. But since I cant afford a new desk, will a two drawer filing cabinet do for me or is there something someone else recommends instead?

Thanks...D

I would think that would work great untill you can get exactly what you need!!!

I would think it would work fine as well.

Denarella,
Look into your loacl Freecycle group. The Freecycle Network I know down here the freecyclers are ALWAYS getting rid of desks and filing cabinets. With all the colleges in your area there have GOT to be TONS of people unloading desks and such.
Your local group - MercerCountyFreecycle : Mercer County Freecycle (TM) has over 3600 members. You won't have any trouble finding a desk and/or filing cabinet for free!

Two 2-drawer filing cabinets with a door (or a piece of MDF) thrown over the top equals one desk. :thumbup:

I know I should wait to see how my business does first but I just need to know how much room I should anticipate needing....

That's a good idea that way you get exactly what you want! There is a director in my cluster that uses a filebox and her recliner as her "office." I have a HUGE desk and I'm still not happy LOL. I need my hubby to customize my desk.

I made the BIGGEST mistake by looking in the Pottery Barn catalog I got in the mail...now everything else is DISAPPOINTING! LOL!!!:yuck:

D... I have a desk but it's already taken with house stuff so for now all my PC paperwork is in one of those big plastic bins, it hangs files. i got it for $10 at staples. i also have one other plastic bin with my catalogs and season's best books and other door prizes.
