Couch Disposal in Edmonton
A couch can often play such a vital and important role in our homes on a daily basis, but we don’t always realize it. They can play a part in bringing friends and family together, sit in the background when creating core memories and can support us after a long day. But, the reality is that they only last for so long. So when the time comes to replace your old couch with a new one, what are your options to get rid of your old couch?
Depending on your location, the most common choices for couch removal are:
- Furniture donation
- Selling your old couch
- Couch disposal
Couch Donation
Furniture donation is a great removal option when your old couch is gently used and could be re-used by someone else. Not only does donating keep old furniture out of the landfill, but it can also help others who can’t afford to purchase brand new, are budget conscious or are looking for an older, sometimes vintage look. Through a simple google search, you can find furniture donation pick-up organizations near you!
Selling Your Old Couch
If your couch is still in great shape and you’d still like to get some value out of it, selling your old couch could be a great option for you. Utilizing local market places like Facebook Marketplace, Kijiji and Karrot Market, you’re able to list your couch for sale and allow others to view, ask questions, make offers and potentially purchase it from you.
When you’re selling items online, always be sure that you’re selling safely.
