Recycling in Edinburgh by helping people out !

If your moving home you probably are chucking out some old furniture and various other bit ‘n’ bobs, why not try and save the planet instead of dumping it. I always tell some of my customers, almost to the point of talking myself out a paying  job, to try and get rid of it to a local charity shop or charities whom provide for people starting up a home. Places like Four SQUARE @ logie green Road just round from TESCO CANONMILLS who do a valuable job in helping vulnerable people in Edinburgh back into society and need goods to furnish flats, they re more than happy to take you goods if its on fair/good condition. Van man removals is happy to do this for a small fee, on the other hand you could try Bethany Christian trust Main depot in Jane street with shops in Leith, Morningside, Portobello,Stockbridge,Corstorphine ,who sell furniture/bric a brac & Clothing etc for profit to help others, their a bit more fussy on the furniture’s condition but again its always good to recycle something that got a bit of life in it yet and again Van Man is willing to take any itemS along to jane street Edinburgh.

Recycling for cash

Or you could recycle your furniture for cash by taking it to the Auction Houses in Edinburgh there is one off Leith walk in Jane street called Ramsey Cornish and another place just outside town Thomson roddick Scottish auctions out at rosewell out past Ikea or if you have some thing really special like artwork or antiques, Id suggest Lyon & turnbull at broughton place just off broughton street, remember when using the auction you have a fees premium on the sale so please check it out before taking the goods along or using van man removals for the job (we are skilled antique/art movers)

Recycling for free

If all above fails and you have limited time and just want it out the house you could just place an ad on freecycle one of the yahoo groups or on the local Gumtree as long as its in fair condition someone will want it, the other crazy idea is leave it outside your property with a note attached saying free to good home or if a TV say its still working and in a few blinks of an eye it will vanish… esp TVs & good sofas, people are scavengers at heart so this isn’t such a bad idea.
