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.
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
We are unable to accept:
Broken, damaged, or incomplete furniture
Mattresses and bedding (due to hygiene regulations)
Large office desks and furniture
Hazardous materials or anything requiring special disposal
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.
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.
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!
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.
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.
Currently, we focus on physical item donations. There are more suitable causes than ours if you wish to donate money.
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.
