Is a vertical file cabinet more efficient than a lateral file cabinet?

Vertical file cabinets use less floor space per drawer but require users to reach deeper into the drawer to access rear files. Lateral file cabinets have shallower, wider drawers that allow front-to-back or side-to-side filing and easier access across the full drawer width. Lateral files are generally more ergonomic for high-frequency use; vertical files are better when floor space is limited. OfficeFurniture2go.com carries both — call 1-800-460-0858.
