Waste Not, Want Not
We throw away 22 million pieces of furniture each year in the UK and most of this furniture is sent to landfill. Only 10% of people in the UK consider repairing their furniture to extend its lifespan. Horrifyingly, 670,000 tonnes of furniture and 310,000 tonnes of textiles waste is disposed by householders in the UK annually and sent to landfill according to Wrap.
Sadly, 110,000 tonnes of this furniture are totally re-usable. At some stage in a typical year 30% of households will throw away items that could have been donated, sold or reused. More worryingly, a fifth of 16-25 year olds do not know how to recycle or even donate.
