Storage & Filing — Expert Answer
How should I plan storage and filing for a small office of 5–10 people?
For a 5–10 person office: plan for one lateral filing cabinet per 3–4 employees for shared document filing; one mobile pedestal per workstation for personal file storage; one mid-height supply cabinet for shared consumables; and one wardrobe or personal storage unit per 5 employees for coats and bags. Place filing near workstations for high-frequency access, supply storage in a centralized location. Total storage should not occupy more than 8–10% of floor space.
