How do I separate active and inactive files in an office?

Active files (accessed weekly or more): store in rolling pedestals at workstations or the top 2–3 drawers of lateral cabinets in the work area. Semi-active files (accessed monthly): store in lateral cabinets in a centralized filing area. Inactive files (accessed less than quarterly): move to dedicated archive area, records room, or off-site storage. Review and purge files annually per document retention policy to prevent storage from growing unmanaged.
