Furniture and white goods reuse and recycling

If you've got something you don't want, you could do what lots of other people and advertise it on your local neighbourhood Facebook group.  Many people find their unwanted items are needed by someone nearby, and the items they advertise are quickly gone. Local groups are often a good place to find reliable repair services, too.

There are some really good organisations with convenient apps you can use to get rid of your unwanted furniture and white goods – where they’ll be reused rather than disposed of.  They have local groups and pages which you can use to advertise your item, and it’s very likely to match someone else’s need.

Why not have a look at these web sites?: 

• Freegle

• Olio

• LoveJunk  - this waste removal app allows you to create a free listing of a large item you’d like to dispose of and get a quick quote from licensed waste collectors or those wanting to reuse your items. You then pay after collection securely through the app. It promises legal disposal, with the peace of mind that nearly everything will be reused or recycled.
