Recycling furniture is possible, but it depends on the materials used. Some items can be processed at recycling facilities, while others require special disposal. At Andrews Waste, we focus on eco-friendly furniture removal, ensuring that items are recycled or repurposed whenever possible.
Which Furniture Can Be Recycled?
Certain types of furniture are easier to recycle, especially those made from natural or durable materials. These include:
• Metal furniture – Filing cabinets, bed frames, and chairs
• Solid wood and wicker furniture – Desks, bookcases, tables, and chairs
• Sofas and mattresses – Some parts, like metal springs and wooden frames, can be repurposed
Which Furniture Cannot Be Recycled?
Some furniture materials make recycling difficult due to how they are manufactured. These include:
• Particle board and compressed wood – These materials break down easily and contain adhesives that make recycling challenging
• Upholstered furniture – Mixed materials, such as foam and synthetic fabrics, are hard to separate
• Furniture with hazardous treatments – Items treated with chemicals, adhesives, or waterproof coatings are not suitable for recycling
How to Dispose of Old Furniture?
If your furniture cannot be recycled, responsible disposal is still important. Andrews Waste offers a professional furniture removal service to ensure items are handled properly. Our services include:
• Convenient collection – Choose same-day or scheduled pickups
