How to get rid of old furniture

If you have upgraded your furnishings, or maybe you have to downsize, you are probably thinking of how to best get rid of old furniture pieces without hauling them around yourself. Although some people do end up taking furniture to the curb and placing a “Free” sign on them, more often than not most homeowners usually end up taking their old things to the city or county landfill.

But there are other ways of getting rid of them.

Sell Your Furniture

Americans have fully embraced online shopping and, as a result of this, online selling as well. The great thing about this technology is it allows individuals to not only buy goods, but to sell them, too!

Most people know of eBay, for example and another popular site for buying and selling is Craigslist. If you’re a homeowner looking to get rid of old furniture or appliances, both platforms offer a great opportunity to do this and make some money while getting rid of some old furniture.

While the process is fairly simple and these online tools are easy to use, there are still some trends that have evolved over the years that can help you make the best use of this option.

For example, while Craigslist has a large variety of classified categories, the market has shifted to favor certain items. It’s a great place buying or selling furniture and technology products, for instance, but decorative items are not as popular there.

And because Craigslist is even less popular for items like books and clothing, consider eBay or other online selling sites like Etsy, if you’re looking to sell these types of goods.

The biggest key is to think strategically about what furniture items you want to sell online versus items that are better off being donated, or simply being given to family or friends. Your goal is furniture removal and not necessarily to make a lot of money.

Donate Your Furniture

Perhaps making some money is not that important, but giving your old belongings a new home is. This is where donating your old furniture can be a great option. There are literally hundreds of organizations and outlets that will take most donated furniture items.

Mattresses are often rejected, however, as are medical type items. However, almost any other kind of old furniture piece can be gifted and provide much needed furnishings for those less fortunate.

Repurpose Your Furniture

Okay, so maybe you don’t want to bother with the effort of trying to sell or even give away your old furniture. In fact, maybe you really don’t want to get rid of your furniture item, but you had to replace it with something new. No worries! A little creativity and imagination can be applied to just about any furniture piece to produce something new. You can reuse or repurpose your well-loved items.

Old wooden chairs can become nightstands. An old bookshelf can be transformed into a display case. A worn-out sofa can serve well in a garage “game room” or even on the back patio or deck. Repurposing your old furniture is only limited by what you can think of.

Can furniture be recycled?

When it comes to disposing of furniture recycle, reuse, reduce certainly applies. As our children know well these three terms are often used when talking about waste. Recycling is using trash to remake new goods that can be sold again. reusing is finding a new way to use trash so that we don’t have to throw it out, and reducing is cutting back on the amount of trash we make.

And recycling is definitely a viable option when you need to get rid of your old pieces. Most of the time!

Because there can be questionable materials inside of some furniture pieces, which we address at length in the next section, recycling is not always an option. But the good news is that most furniture can be recycled most of the time.
