Upholstered seating

Where to take upholstered seating

From 1 December 2024 we will only accept upholstered seating at these recycling centres:

Why we cannot accept upholstered seating at all our recycling centres

To comply with the law, all upholstered seating must be kept in a separate container, and treated and disposed of separately from other materials. This includes any upholstered seating that has been taken apart.

It is important to keep upholstered seating whole where possible. Taking upholstered seating items apart increases the risk of allowing the Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs) to be released into the environment and may increase your risk of being exposed to them.

We will only be able to accept your upholstered domestic seating or parts of upholstered domestic seating at one of the seven recycling centres that have a separate container.
