Will purchasing secondhand business furniture save money?

If you are looking for perfect quality furniture that doesn't come with a high street price tag, Recycled Business Furniture is the ideal place for you. We don't believe you should choose between price and quality for your secondhand business furniture, and you don't have to with us. All our products are thoroughly checked to pass our showroom inspection, and all come with a guarantee that you will save money when you buy your office furniture with us.

How long will it take for my furniture to be delivered?

Our reliable delivery team works around you, so when you complete your secondhand business furniture purchase with us, we will determine the best time and date to deliver your new furniture. Depending on your location, we will discuss delivery charges with you at the time of purchase. We are based in High Wycombe, in the South East, so deliveries to this area are more cost-effective, but we are happy to deliver further afield when necessary.

Do you have a showroom I can visit?

Absolutely! Our showroom spans over 39,000 sq. ft of warehouse space and stocks everything you could need to kit out your space, whether you have a small office or an entire building. Our stock includes thousands of chairs, desks and pedestals as well as a vast range of meeting room furniture, storage and other items you will need to complete your office (even paintings!) If you would like to take a look around our showroom, just give us a call ahead of time, so we can ensure someone is free to show you around.

If you would like to see our showroom but cannot make it in person, speak to a team member who will be happy to set up a WhatsApp virtual tour of our space with our warehouse manager.

Can I collect my secondhand business furniture from you?

Of course. If you have transport large enough, or it's more cost-effective to collect rather than have our team deliver, we are more than happy to accept collection. Just let us know your plans when you complete your purchase, and the team will be here to help you load your secondhand business furniture onto your van. Collection times are: Monday to Thursday 8 am to 3.30 pm, and Friday 8 am to 3 pm.  

Where do you get your secondhand furniture from?

Our secondhand business furniture generally comes from the office clearances and removals that our team completes. We often get phone calls from offices that are downsizing, moving to a new location or closing their businesses. Why throw away your office furniture when it could be perfect for someone else's space?

Can you clear out office spaces?

Yes! Our team is prepped and ready to clear out large office spaces, so you don't have to worry about what you will do with your unwanted furniture. If you are looking for someone to support your office clearout, just give us a call to find out how we can help you. Our friendly team will manage each step of the process for you, leaving you to deal with the rest of your move in a stress-free environment.

What do you do with items that aren't approved for the showroom?

Any items not approved for the showroom are disposed of according to our recycling policy. More than 95% of the items we collect from office clearouts are suitable for our showroom. The remaining 5% is broken down into parts to support our recycling programme. Any steel is sent to local steel merchants who can reuse the product. Wood is sent to be used as fuel. We are aware that we are not able to recycle everything that comes into our service, but as registered waste carriers, we give our clients peace of mind that we go through all appropriate channels to dispose of any waste correctly.

Can you help me choose the best chair?

Our showroom team will support you, not just in choosing the most aesthetically pleasing furniture for your office space but in selecting the most appropriate. Our team will talk you through each of the features and functions and will point out the chairs that are in your budget range. Our range of ergonomic chairs is all featured in our showroom, so you get a chance to try everything out and find the chair that is best for you.

Does buying secondhand business furniture protect the environment?

Purchasing secondhand business furniture is one of the best ways you and your business can support the environment. We have estimated over the last decade; we have saved over 140 tonnes of perfectly good office furniture from going to a landfill. When you purchase secondhand furniture, you are making a commitment to the environment that will support your CSR and environmental impact policies.

What other items do you have in your showroom?

The list of items we have in our showroom could take up our entire website, so for more information on our products, visit our home page, where you can navigate to everything you need. Choose from whiteboards to lockers and executive seating to breakout furniture. There really isn't a lot we don't stock!
