Do you provide Delivery?Our warehouse is located in Ultimo, Sydney. We can arrange for delivery to close by surrounding suburbs for an additional fee. We will require your address and access instructions to provide a quote (ie: one flight of stairs, or internal stair access). Deliveries where inaccurate information is provided (ie: narrow staircase and measurements not made to ensure items fit), will be subject to an additional fee, and the paid fee not refundable (additional fee is $90 + hourly fee). Alternatively, we can work with your courier for outer Sydney and interstate deliveries.
-
Do you buy furniture?We accept donated furnishings but do not purchase. We work hard to keep our prices low and our furnishings out of landfill. As such we usually price our items in the same range as a private seller would.
-
What types of items can I donate?We accept a wide range of furniture, home décor, art, and second-hand goods that are in reusable condition. This includes: Wooden, metal, and upholstered furniture Antique and vintage pieces Home décor and artwork Small household items (in good condition) We will usually ask you to send an image of item and location if to be collected to info@upcyclesydney.com

-
How can I donate my items?You can donate in three simple steps: Check the item against our list of accepted donations. Contact us via our website, email, or phone to confirm acceptance. Drop it off at our Ultimo location, or arrange for pick-up if available.
-
Do you offer a pick-up service?Yes, we may offer pick-up services for furniture items within certain areas of Sydney, whose sale will offset the cost of transport. Availability depends on location, item condition, and scheduling. Contact us to check if we can arrange a pick-up.
-
Can I get a tax deduction for my donation?Sorry no. We are not a registered charity, so donations are not tax-deductible. However, your contributions often end up being given to charities and definitely help reduce landfill waste and support upcycling efforts in Sydney!
-
What happens to my donated items?Your donated items are carefully restored (if possible), repurposed, or sold at affordable prices to give them a second life. This helps promote sustainable living and reduces waste.
-
Do you accept corporate or bulk donations?Yes! If you are a business or organisation looking to donate furniture or surplus items, please contact us to discuss how we can work together.
-
Do you accept monetary donations?Currently, we focus on physical item donations. There are more suitable causes than ours if you wish to donate money.
-
Can I volunteer or help in other ways?Absolutely! If you're passionate about sustainability and upcycling and have the time and experience to repair furniture we’d love your help. We have a workshop in Ultimo. Contact us to explore volunteer opportunities.
