Furniture reuse and recycling

You can reduce the amount of furniture sent to landfill by recycling or donating them for reuse.  Our Reuse and Recycling Centre takes furniture. 
 

You can also contact a local Furniture Reuse Organisation through the Furniture Reuse Network

 

Furnish Ltd is a registered charity who will collect furniture and use it for people on a low income who are re-housed into permanent accommodation. 020 8996 8920.

 

Green-Works is a charity which collects office furniture only. For more information please contact Green-Works. 0845 230 2231 info@green-works.co.uk

 

Take a look at Freecycle, which is a network that promotes the reuse or unwanted items.

 

You can also use e-bay www.ebay.co.uk and Gumtree www.gumtree.com to sell unwanted items.
