Why we sell second–hand furniture

​We all need to consider how the choices we make impact the planet. When improving our homes, we can ask ourselves if furniture we don’t need could be given a second life. Every year, perfectly fine second-hand furniture is thrown away. That’s why we’re happy to buy back and resell your old IKEA furniture and give it a second life in a new home. 

Keep good things going! ​

One key part in achieving this goal is to create and offer products that are designed to be repurposed, repaired, reused, resold, or – as the last resort – recycled, generating as little waste as possible.
