“Our entire south Florida CORT team is thrilled about this beautiful showroom,” said Terry Carpenter, district general manager for CORT in south Florida. “It will be a great resource for any company or individual who wants to maintain an up-scale image while also controlling costs.”
  
CORT has been a leading “rent-to-rent” business for the past 40 years, providing furniture and accessories rental for customers who want the convenience and flexibility of rental furniture, including delivery within 48 hours and pick-up after use.
