RESEAT · San Francisco Bay Area Circular Furniture Dealer

Furniture with a backstory.

17 billion pounds of office furniture get tossed in the US every year. We keep the good stuff in rotation across the San Francisco Bay Area. We are an open line dealer, franchised to nobody, working second life inventory across every major line: Steelcase, Herman Miller, Knoll, Haworth, Teknion, HON. Every piece tagged with RESEAT ID, delivered from SOMA to San Jose.

One Bay Area partner for all of it.

Most Bay Area companies juggle three vendors: a procurement firm, a moving company, and someone to haul the rest off when the lease ends. We do all of it, from San Francisco to San Jose. So nothing falls between the cracks.

Every major line

The brands you'd buy new. The prices on a budget IKEA order.

We are not franchised to a manufacturer, so no line is a house line and none is off the table. Most of what we put into a Bay Area office came out of a Bay Area building. 34 of the majors are on the marketplace second life right now, 130 manufacturers in total.

Why pick us

Four things you won't find at a regular Bay Area dealer.

Second life with a paper trail. Every piece is inspected, warrantied, and tagged with RESEAT ID. Most Bay Area dealers treat second life like a side hustle. It is the only thing we do.

70/30 split, on the line item. Our cut goes on the invoice, not buried in markup. The dealer network keeps 30%, RESEAT keeps 70%. Everyone sees the math.

Open line, no franchise quota. We are not franchised to a manufacturer, so no catalog writes your spec. Brief to install to refresh runs through one project lead and one Bay Area crew.

RESEAT ID on every piece. Specs, warranty, depreciation, resale value, carbon footprint. The same dashboard you use this year is the one you use to plan the refresh.

Where we work

Ten Bay Area markets. One crew.

San Francisco, Oakland, San Jose, the Peninsula, Silicon Valley, and the East Bay get a 24-48hr response window on new briefs. Second life procurement, office decommissioning, moves, and installs, all from a Bay Area crew. We deliver to New York, Los Angeles, and Seattle too. The Bay is where we live.

Answers

What people ask before they call.

The short version of what we do across the San Francisco Bay Area, where we do it, and what it costs.

RESEAT is a circular office furniture dealer serving the San Francisco Bay Area. We do three things: decommission offices that are closing or moving, buy and resell second life commercial furniture, and furnish workplaces with inspected used product from MillerKnoll, Steelcase, Knoll, Haworth, Humanscale, Teknion, HNI, and Okamura at 40 to 60 percent below new. Every piece we place carries a RESEAT ID digital passport with its specs, condition, warranty status, and carbon impact.
The San Francisco Bay Area is our core market: San Francisco, Oakland, Berkeley, San Jose, Palo Alto, Mountain View, Sunnyvale, Redwood City, San Mateo, and Walnut Creek. Response is 24 hours in most of those and 48 hours in Walnut Creek. We also deliver to New York, Los Angeles, and Seattle.
For commercial-grade product, yes. A quality task chair or workstation is built for a twenty year service life, and most second life inventory is three to seven years into it. Second life commercial furniture competes with budget-new from Wayfair Business, IKEA Business, or Amazon Business, not with premium-new, and it outlasts budget-new several times over at a similar price. The savings against buying the same commercial piece new run 40 to 60 percent.
Yes. If you are closing, downsizing, or refreshing a Bay Area office, we buy the resellable inventory and route the rest to donation or recycling. Send the details through the decommission intake and we come back inside 48 hours with a disposition plan: what resells and for how much, what gets donated, what gets recycled, and what the whole job nets out at.
A franchise dealer is contracted to one manufacturer and has a quota to hit, so the spec follows the contract. RESEAT is open line, which means no manufacturer sets our specification. We source the right piece from whichever brand has it, and we do not sell new major furniture at all, so nobody here has a reason to talk you into a bigger invoice.
RESEAT ID is a digital passport attached to every piece we place. It carries the purchase record and specs, warranty status, depreciation and current resale estimate, and carbon footprint data. It travels with the chair or the desk for the rest of its life, including after you sell it, which is what makes the next reconfiguration or resale fast instead of forensic.
A little bit of forethought can end a lot of waste.
