Reuse & Recycle
Reduce, Re-use, Recycle. Simple…
Wagstaff are at the forefront of helping our customers responsibly manage unwanted furniture in a sustainable and cost-effective way.
While furniture may no longer be suited to its current environment, it doesn’t have to be disregarded. Re-using just one desk, pedestal and task chair you can save 177 kgs of CO2. With an estimated 250,000 units of furniture reaching the end of its life each year, re-using just 50% could save 23,000 tonnes of CO2 from being released into the atmosphere. Plus, by redistributing these items, new owners get furniture they need at little or no cost.
We have five avenues to avoid office furniture heading to landfill:
1. Waste to Wonder
We have partnered with this initiative set up as part of the Big Bright Futures Charity to re-home unwanted furniture for charitable causes both in the UK and abroad.
2. Internal Churn:
We can set your business up with an internal Swap Shop database, to allow staff to pick and choose from company stock. We will manage the whole process and our national logistics teams will get it where it needs to be.
3. Reused Shop:
Our online used furniture store where you can buy quality re-used products.
4. Purchasing for Hire:
If your furniture fits the bill we will buy it from you to use as hire stock. Our Hire team will assess the furniture and collect it from you.
5. Recycle:
Recycling to us means segregating products into their core elements, wood, metal, plastic etc… this is done at our distribution hubs before being collected by local recycling companies.
