Every commercial building needs to have a revamp every now and again. New desks and chairs for your employees, fridges for the staff room, bigger filing cabinets and more. But the question is, what do you do with your old furniture after having this update?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Don\u2019t make the mistake of moving forward with the redecorating of your office without planning what to do with the unwanted furniture. This is especially important because you\u2019ll be left with a lot of old tables to try to find space for when your new ones arrive. You could be left with furniture clogging up your storage areas or corridors whilst you search for a disposal method.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>

If your old office furniture is damaged and not fit for donation or reselling, then finding the right place to dispose of it is important. Most types of office furniture are classed as general waste so it is possible to take them to the tip, but this is often only achievable if you\u2019re getting rid of one or two pieces of furniture.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

At most tips in the UK, it is prohibited for building or commercial waste to be disposed of at the site. For this reason, the use of vans is usually banned and if you\u2019re looking to get rid of a large amount of furniture, you\u2019ll need a vehicle that can handle the weight of the items as well as the room to fit them all in. Therefore, if you\u2019re looking to get rid of a large amount of office furniture, you\u2019ll have to go down a different route…<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>
