• Getting the best collection price

  Here are some tips for getting the best quotes from collectors, and the good news is that they're very easy! First, make sure your listing is as attractive as possible. This means good photos (maybe a short video), a clear description and an appealing title: 'Lovely almost new Sofa' sounds a lot nicer than 'old, unwanted sofa'. Second, make your items as accessible as possible. Collectors prefer items that can be loaded quickly and easily. Lastly, (where possible) list your item between Monday-Friday and choose 'Anytime' for your collection time. This helps removal teams fit your job into their schedule more easily and they are most active during the week.

• How to increase likelihood of reuse

  Here are some tips to maximise the chance of your item being reused. Provide several photos of your item from different angles with clear lighting. Include its dimensions in your description and details of any wear and tear, stains or other imperfections that a potential new owner would want to know. You don't want a reuser to change their mind at collection because of something that wasn’t fully disclosed in the listing! Lastly, adding the story behind your reason for disposal can really add credibility and make your listing more appealing. For example, are you moving abroad or just had a baby, so no longer have space? Let people know!

• Does my furniture need a fire label?

  A fire label, or fire retardant label, is required when donating upholstered furniture to charity. This is because it is unlawful for charities to sell on upholstered furniture without it being fire safe. However, this legislation does not apply if one person gives some furniture to another person. So, if your item doesn't have a label, it's fine to donate it to someone else via LoveJunk.
