How to get rid of old furniture and large unused items?

If you're thinking about moving, renovating, or simply replacing furniture, you've probably wondered how to get rid of old furniture. Especially large and heavy furniture. You can't just throw it in a dumpster, and of course, you can't just abandon it anywhere. This could be the case with your old sofa, a refrigerator that no longer works, or that huge and heavy washing machine.

This is one of the most common questions we professionals get, and in this article, we'll help you know what to do with each piece of furniture, depending on its condition and state. We'll also offer some tips to save you time and trouble when you need an effective solution.

Find out where the scrapyard is in your city and if it collects large furniture and appliances.

Sometimes, scrapyards and recycling centers offer a furniture collection service, either at home, where users can call to request a visit, or through curbside pickup.

If they offer this service, you'd just need to let them know in advance and drop the furniture off at your doorstep. However, it's essential knotethat few recycling centers or Scrap Buyers in Dubai offer this type of service, as it would require a significant amount of time and effort.
If they have a website or phone number available, don't hesitate to contact them.

Avoid Leaving Furniture on the Curb

We don't recommend simply leaving your large piece of furniture on the curb and waiting for pickup, as it will be difficult to transport and you risk injury. Furthermore, abandoning this type of waste on the street is illegal, and you can be fined much more than the cost of pickup.

In some locations and with some waste management companies, it's possible to purchase a special tag to place on bulky items. This way, when specialists patrol the streets looking for old furniture, they can stop by your home and take the item in question. However, it's important to keep in mind that you can't choose the day or time of collection; you must adhere to the schedules of the waste collection center staff.

Another good option for disposing of metal objects is scrap yards. However, you'll likely have to pay a small fee for the collection of large scrap metal objects. The only drawback to scrap yards is that they only accept household appliances; they can't recycle furniture such as sofas or wooden tables.

Publish it on buying and selling websites

Even if your sofa is in poor condition and you think it can't have a second life, you can list it on resale sites with a clear message that you're giving it away rather than selling it. Chances are someone will be willing to pick it up for free and take care of the shipping. Plus, many professionals refurbish old furniture, and resale sites are the perfect place to find quality materials.

Donate it

Donating is a good option if the item you want to get rid of isn't in bad condition. Many professionals and charities can take unwanted furniture. During the process of clearing out furniture and junk, it's a good idea to make a list of items you can donate. This way, you'll not only get rid of old furniture but also help a worthy cause.
