Office furniture liquidation in O'Hare
Corporate move-outs, consolidations and lease exits in O'Hare, planned around the district's buildings and logistics, starting with a free walkthrough.
Clearing an office in O'Hare
The O'Hare office market surrounds the airport's east side, centered on Rosemont along River Road, Higgins Road and Bryn Mawr Avenue near the I-190, I-294 and Kennedy Expressway interchange, and reaching into Chicago's O'Hare neighborhood and Des Plaines. Logistics and travel companies, insurers, consumer brands, technology firms and regional sales offices value the airport access.
The stock is mostly Class A mid-rise and high-rise towers from the 1980s and later, such as One O'Hare Centre on River Road and the Columbia Centre buildings on Bryn Mawr, many with attached parking garages. Most have loading docks and freight elevators, so clear-outs depend on dock scheduling, garage clearances and landlord insurance rules rather than street permits.
District snapshot: Cushman & Wakefield measured O'Hare office vacancy at 21.7% in Q2 2026, with a Class A asking rent of $39.47 per square foot, the highest of any Chicago suburban submarket. Source

Planning a O'Hare move-out
What experienced facilities teams account for in this district before the first desk comes apart.
- Check garage and dock clearances before dispatching trucks, since many River Road and Bryn Mawr towers route moves through one dock beside a low-clearance parking structure.
- Time truck runs around I-190, I-294 and Kennedy Expressway congestion, which builds early with airport and commuter traffic.
- Look at the Donald E. Stephens Convention Center and Allstate Arena calendars, because trade shows and events fill Rosemont roads and hotels.
- Have crews ride the CTA Blue Line to the Rosemont station when tower parking is restricted during a move.
- Collect laptops, monitors and printers for a registered electronics recycler, since Illinois law bars throwing covered electronic devices in the trash.
