Statistics you should know

These stats are just a few examples of why it's critical that we put sustainability first.

12 million tons of furniture get sent to landfills each year

Most of the furniture cluttering landfills was made within the last 15 years

Over one-third of people throw away furniture that could be sold or donated

What is a circular economy?

The circular economy redefines how we consume products by keeping them in circulation through multiple uses. Traditionally, the use of furniture is linear. We buy it, live with it, and then dispose of it. Instead of ending the lifecycle at one use, we've created a platform where furniture can continue to stay in circulation for years to come.

Help us continue to offset the environmental effects of fast furniture and furniture waste by shopping for furniture secondhand and selling it when it’s no longer needed.

Our commitment

Carbon offset

As of 2022, all deliveries within our standard service zones are carbon neutral. We're committed to expanding these efforts to include our extended service zone in the future.

Operations

Our teams are continually working to improve our operations through sustainable packing and route efficiencies. Stay tuned here for more updates.

Education

We're also committed to educating users about the impact of buying used, whether through content shared on our platforms or by expanding our reach into new cities.
