What can I do with my old sofa?

If you're getting ready for your new furniture delivery, you may be wondering what to do with your old sofa.

DFS does not offer a furniture removal, disposal or recycling service, but there are several options available.

I want to donate my old sofa

If your sofa is in good condition and still has its fire safety label attached, you may be able to donate it to charity.

Many charities offer furniture collection services, including the British Heart Foundation, and some local charities may also collect reusable furniture from your home.

My sofa needs to be disposed of

If your sofa is no longer suitable for donation, your local council may offer a bulky waste collection service for a small fee.

You can also arrange collection through a private waste removal company that offers furniture disposal or recycling services.

Before you book a collection

Whichever option you choose, we recommend checking that the provider:

• Accepts the type of furniture you want to dispose of.
• Can safely access and remove the furniture from your property.
• Offers recycling where possible.

This will help ensure your collection goes smoothly and avoids any unexpected issues
