Giving to re-use organisations
Re-use organisations provide a fantastic service for people looking to get rid of unwanted items that are still in good condition - especially furniture and electrical items.
What will they take?
Popular items include:
- Tables
- Chairs
- Wardrobes
- Chest of drawers
- Sofas (by law these must have fire safety labels to be re-sold - so it's best to leave any fire labels on your furniture so it can be re-used in the future)
The following items are accepted by some organisations:
- Carpets
- Mattresses
- White goods
How to contact your nearest re-use organisation
- You can ask your council - they usually have a list of re-use organisations in the area.
