Take the pledge and #ditchtheskip

The amount of bulky waste is increasing every year and businesses need to act.

We are encouraging businesses, large organisations and universities to re-think about how they dispose of unwanted office furniture.

Every year over 800,000 desks end up in landfill in the UK alone, Costing businesses approximately £9 Million and producing around 8,000 tonnes of waste

Will you help us to help local communities?

CT Furniture want to help divert as much furniture from landfill as possible and put your unwanted items back into use. Helping local community groups, business start ups, schools and businesses looking to expand.

As a business operating in the United Kingdom, you can pledge to send your unwanted office furniture to CT Furniture and  #ditchtheskip.

Our professional, trained staff and volunteers will take single items to full office clearances; making it easier than ever to get your office cleared out with ease. We offer a nationwide service and take care of it all.

If you pledge to donate your items to CT Furniture instead of the skip, you will:

• Save money
• Help the environment
• Help our volunteers gain valuable experience that can lead to employment and a boost their confidence
• Have the satisfaction of knowing that you are helping other organisations within the local community access affordable quality furniture.
