Furniture reuse

Have your furniture collected for reuse

Furniture can't be recycled in Westminster, but there are ways you can keep it out of landfill, which helps the environment, and instead let someone else use it.

Westminster's Bulky Waste Collection service

Rather than ending up in landfill, furniture in good condition collected through the Bulky Waste Collection service in Westminster will be cherry-picked for refurbishment and reuse. Furniture in poor condition will be sent to landfill.

• See Bulky Waste Collections. 

Give it away online

There are plenty of people on the look out for free furniture, who will collect for free - simply post an ad online and let someone else do the hard work for you.

• Join and post an ad with freecycle
• Join and post an ad with freegle Westminster
