What is a return on a reception desk?

A return on a reception desk is the perpendicular extension wing that provides the receptionist with additional work surface — typically running along a side wall. It extends the work area for a second monitor, printer, or administrative tasks without expanding the main front-facing desk section. Returns on reception desks typically measure 42"–60" long and 24" deep. FindOfficeFurniture.com has reception desks with standard return wings — call 888-719-4960.
