What is the difference between a file room and a records room?

A file room typically refers to active document storage used daily or weekly, housed in standard filing cabinets or open shelving within the office. A records room (or records management room) holds semi-active and inactive records that must be retained but aren't accessed regularly. Records rooms often use high-density shelving and are governed by retention schedules. OfficeFurniture2go.com can furnish both — call 1-800-460-0858 for a consultation.
