Sometimes furniture doesn’t fit our space or lifestyle anymore but it’s still in excellent condition. That’s why we’re running a reuse drop-off trial, to help rehome this quality furniture to families who need it.
We’re accepting tables, chairs, sofas, bookcases and more. City of Sydney residents can submit items online for donation [https://survey123.arcgis.com/share/80427609979b464383beaec91900fe5a]. If accepted, you can drop them off at our next Recycle It Saturday event.

Most items get recycled, but some get reused. Kids’ bikes, for example, get repaired and given to families in need. X-rays, on the other hand, get fully recycled and all personal details destroyed.
