Office furniture liquidation in Tempe Rio Salado
Corporate move-outs, consolidations and lease exits in Tempe Rio Salado, planned around the district's buildings and logistics, with one written net offer.
Clearing an office in Tempe Rio Salado
The Tempe Rio Salado district lines Tempe Town Lake along Rio Salado Parkway, from Priest Drive east past Mill Avenue to Marina Heights near Rural Road, with Loop 202 and the ASU Tempe campus just south. It holds some of the Valley's highest-rent office space, with insurance, technology, consulting and consumer brands, including State Farm's Marina Heights hub, the Hayden Ferry Lakeside towers and corporate campuses farther west.
Lakefront buildings are mostly newer Class A mid-rise and high-rise towers on podium garages, where docks and freight elevators sit inside structured parking or off rear service lanes. Farther west toward Priest Drive, low-rise corporate campuses have conventional docks and large surface lots. Garage-level docks commonly limit truck height, so confirm clearance before sending a full-size box truck.
District snapshot: In December 2025, Hines moved to drop plans for an office high-rise at Rio Salado Parkway and Ash Avenue near Tempe Beach Park in favor of a condominium project, after finding office subleasing weak. Source

Planning a Tempe Rio Salado move-out
What experienced facilities teams account for in this district before the first desk comes apart.
- The Tempe Streetcar runs along Rio Salado Parkway and Mill Avenue, and Valley Metro Rail crosses the lake near Mill Avenue, so keep trucks and staging out of track lanes.
- ASU football Saturdays at Mountain America Stadium and lake events such as Ironman Arizona in November close or jam Rio Salado Parkway and Mill Avenue, so check the calendar before booking.
- Lakefront tower management typically requires a certificate of insurance, reserved freight elevator time and after-hours or weekend moves to keep tenant lobbies clear.
- Loop 202 and I-10 access near the Priest Drive and Scottsdale Road-Rural Road interchanges backs up at rush hour, so time outbound trucks for mid-morning or evening.
- Summer heat reflects hard off the lake-area hardscape, so schedule dock work early in the morning from May through September.
