What is a thrift store?

A thrift store is a store where used items are given a second life. These stores accept donations of goods that are still in good condition and then sell them to new owners at a favorable price.

Why use a thrift store as a collection service?

Hiring a thrift store or regular collection service to clear your home can save you a lot of time and hassle. It can offer a solution, especially in situations such as the death of a loved one, a move to a smaller home, or the evacuation of a rental home. Thrift stores often offer a collection service that can collect usable items directly from your home. This is not only easier, but also good for the environment.

What items does a thrift store buy?

Thrift stores are interested in a wide range of items that are still in good condition. This can vary from furniture, clothing, books, to electronics. It is important to realize that not everything is accepted. Items that are damaged or no longer usable will often have to be disposed of.

What happens to your furniture after the house has been emptied?

When you decide to donate your furniture to a thrift store, it usually gets a second life in someone else's home. This is a wonderful way to contribute to the circular economy. However, there is a part for which no second life can be found, and we will have to dispose of it in a responsible manner.
