About furniture & fixtures scrap
Steel furniture — almirahs, racks, filing cabinets, lockers and workstation frames — is straightforward ferrous scrap and is bought by weight. Where a piece is sound and saleable, reuse is worth more than melting, and we will offer on that basis instead.
Wooden furniture splits by material. Solid timber can be reused or repurposed and holds some value. Particle board and MDF, which is what most modern office furniture is made of, has essentially no recycling value and is priced as a removal job covering labour and transport.
Office refits and shop closures usually mix all of this together with partitions, false ceiling frames, signage and light fittings. These are quoted as a lot after a walk-through, in the same way as a warehouse clearance.
