Office Furniture Exchange Closes Doors and Liquidates to Office Furniture Liquidations

SAN ANTONIO — Office Furniture Liquidations (OFL) welcomes the inventory and customers of Office Furniture Exchange when its doors close on October 31, 2023. Both furniture showrooms are staples in the community for offering discounted, new and used office furniture to business owners.

Office Furniture Exchange, located at 123 West Cevallos in San Antonio, first opened in 2006. Owner Perry Shipler has liquidated the business to OFL, located at 6838 Bandera Road.

“After a five-year battle with cancer, Perry Shipler, owner of Office Furniture Exchange, made the decision to close the store,” said Sebryna Shipler, daughter of Perry Shipler. “He truly enjoyed being a part of the San Antonio community. He loved speaking with clients as they came through the door and truly made an impact in many lives. My father always wanted to make a positive difference in the lives of those around him.”

OFL CEO Erik Darmstetter has known Shipler for years and is honored to help the family through difficult period of transition.

“A customer of both of our companies came by recently after learning of the closing and helped introduce me to Sebryna Shipler who we have been working with,” said Darmstetter. “The items that we are unable to sell at OFL will be given away to local charities.”The furniture that was liquidated from Office Furniture Exchange is available at OFL’s showroom and a portion of the sales will be provided to the Shiplers.

With the economy picking up and more people getting back into office spaces, OFL continues to see a tremendous need to bring items to customers faster, in bigger quantities at or below their budget. Premium prices were already paid by the original owners, so OFL customers get name brand furniture such as Steelcase, Knoll, and Herman Miller for a fraction of the new retail price. Currently, the most in-demand needs are seating and height-adjustable desks.

Store hours are Monday through Friday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. and Saturday from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. OFL loads purchased items in vehicles and offers delivery if needed.
