As workplaces grow, shrink or change, furniture becomes obsolete or simply worn down. While this makes for a perfect opportunity to swap old furniture with new or quality used furniture, it can be a headache getting rid of old furniture.
Fortunately, finding a new home for old office furniture can be surprisingly easy.
If your used furniture is still in useable shape, don’t toss it out! Quality used office furniture can be traded in for credit for purchases at Choice Office Furniture. Your old furniture can go a long way in offsetting the cost of something new or different.
Trade in your used furniture at Choice Furniture
Choice’s trade-in program is simple. First, send us a message with the details of your old furniture. Let us know what type, brand (if you know it) and number of pieces you have. We will be happy to let you know how much credit they are worth! From there, we can discuss pick up or drop off options. We are happy to make it as easy as possible to get rid of old furniture.
Donate your old furniture
For office furniture that has been well loved but no longer worth a trade-in credit, it can be donated to a good cause. Local thrift stores often accept used furniture and many even have free pickups. Search for a local thrift store or non-profit organization that accepts used furniture with the Recycling Council of Alberta directory. There are a variety of thrift stores, centres and organizations that would be happy to take any furniture off your hands.
Discard old, worn furniture
After many years of heavy use, some pieces of furniture may not care to go to a new home. They may be too worn out or beat up. Smaller items of furniture can put into your garbage bin or dumpster, just be sure to check with your garbage pickup service provider to make sure. And then for larger items of old furniture, the City allows disposal in their landfills.
The good news of getting rid of old furniture: once they are gone, there is more room for new furniture! Visit our new and used office furniture showroom to explore exciting additions to your workplace.

We have about 7 office chairs that have gone bad or are broken and we need them to be disposed.

Hi Onyinye, thank you for reaching out. Unfortunately if the chairs are bad or broken, we are unable to take them here as they would not be able to be re-sold. If you need help disposing of these items, we can help with that, but there would be a charge for the pick up and also a disposal fee at the landfill for this. If you are interested please let me know and I can help, you can email me at jhatch@choicefurniture.ca.
If you need new chairs to replace the broken ones, we have a large selection of new and used chairs to choose from as well, and if you choose to purchase from us, we could deliver the new chairs at the same time we pick up the old ones for disposal, if you bundle the delivery and pick up costs then you can save a bit that way
Thanks,
Jon

Hi Bonnie,
Thank you for your comment. We do need to see the chairs to determine if they are in good enough condition to be able to re-sell as used chairs. If you would like, you can send pictures of these to info@choicefurniture.ca, we will have a look and respond to you directly regarding what we could do to help out!
Thanks,
Jon
