Furniture Recycling Groups in Cheshire
There are around 300 furniture recycling projects throughout the UK and it is estimated that these projects redistribute over £13 million of furniture every year. This does not include second hand dealers or charity shops that sell to the general public.
Furniture recycling projects accept unwanted furniture which is donated by the general public, normally collected free of charge by local projects and sold on to people on low-incomes. Most Furniture Recycling groups limit their supply to people in need through a system of referral from welfare agencies.
Unlike many other recycled materials that face a problem of not having an end market, furniture recycling charities are attempting to satisfy a massive demand for furniture from people on very low incomes. Many groups report that demand exceeds supply by up to 50%.
So if you have an item of furniture at home that you no-longer need consider donating it to your nearest Furniture Reuse Group, or if you are looking for low-priced second hand furniture contact your local group, some also sell to the general public.
The groups in Cheshire have come together under the umbrella group of the Cheshire Furniture Reuse Forum. For details about the project closest to you please look at their website:
