CORT Business Services Corporation · Fairfax, VA United States

If you need to furnish an office or temporary residence, buying furniture often doesn't make sense: moving furniture is expensive, office needs may change, and furniture may become worn or dated. These simple facts made CORT Business Services the country's #1 furniture renter. A subsidiary of Wesco Financial (which is 80% owned by Berkshire Hathaway), CORT rents office and residential furniture -- along with trade show and special event furnishings -- online, by phone, and from about 250 US locations. CORT, which offers such well-known brands as HON, Lane, Bassett, Chromcraft, United Chair, and National Office Furniture, also offers space planning and design services, and sells previously rented furniture. To read the full description, subscribe now.
