What happens to my furniture item within the Buyback service?

We will inspect your furniture item and classify it as Second-chance.


Learn what happens to your used IKEA furniture after returning it through the buyback service.

Your furniture item is inspected and then resold in the IKEA Second Chance market.
Through our Buyback service, used furniture gets a new chance and remains in use for longer.

HOW THE PROCESS WORKS

✓ Return of your used furniture item
✓ Quality and condition inspection by IKEA
✓ Labelled as “Second Chance”
✓ Resold in the Second-chance area

WHY DOES IKEA OFFER SECOND CHANCE?

The service helps extend the lifespan of furniture and supports more sustainable use of resources.
By reusing well-maintained furniture, IKEA promotes a more circular approach to products.

GOOD TO KNOW

The furniture item is resold at the same IKEA store where it was returned.
