If furniture is in good condition, it could be sold or donated for reuse or to charity. Some local authorities and charities might even collect reusable items from your home. Please note that any furniture containing upholstery needs to have a fire label on it, or it cannot be reused - see Reuse Network (opens in a new window).

If the item is not reusable, you can make use of your local council's bulky collection service (open in a new window), but there can be a charge for the bulky waste collection services. You can also take furniture to one of north London’s reuse and recycling centres (RRCs) (opens in a new window). However, please note that non-reusable furniture can only be taken to Kings Road Reuse and Recycling Centre if it is broken up into the different types of material, like wood and metal.
