UK's GreenWorks makes old office furniture new again

GreenWorks

You can recycle bottles, cans, and newspapers. Why not office chairs, desks and conference tables? UK-based GreenWorks does exactly that. If you've got old office furniture (and you live in the UK) that's no use to anybody, GreenWorks will dismantle and separate furniture parts for recycling. But that's just a small portion of what this group does.

GreenWorks also accepts donations of more gently used office furniture, which it helps keep out of landfills by fixing it up and selling or donating it to charities and businesses. The non-profit has been around for 8 years and has helped divert more than 60,000 tons of furniture from landfills in that time.
