Partnering with Recycling Companies for End-to-End Office Relocation Solutions

Ida Gorecka • January 31, 2025

As a removal company, you've mastered the logistics of moving offices. But nowadays, clients want more than just moving services - they're looking for complete solutions that combine professional relocation with sustainable options for their used office furniture. Whether it's office furniture clearance, recycling programs, or finding homes for second-hand office furniture near them, businesses need comprehensive end-to-end solutions. If your clients are asking about sustainable furniture disposal options, contact us to discuss a removal partnership program.


At Coggin, we've developed specialist processes that can turn this challenge into an opportunity for your business.

How We Support Your Removal Processes

When your clients ask about furniture disposal during an office move, you can now offer them a complete solution. Our zero-landfill guarantee and recycling processes integrate seamlessly with your removal services, turning a common client concern into additional revenue. Whether it's clearance, recycling, or refurbishment, we handle everything after you've moved the furniture they want to keep.


No additional staff needed. No extra equipment to buy. Just a straightforward way to increase your project values while solving a major pain point for your clients.

Professional Office Furniture Refurbishment Services


Our refurbishment service offers two valuable options: breathing new life into your clients' existing furniture they wish to keep, or refurbishing their unwanted second-hand office furniture for resale. In both cases, we strip everything down to the frame, replace worn components, rebuild mechanisms, and restore finishes. This approach means your clients can either save on replacement costs by refurbishing their current office furniture, or support the circular economy by having unwanted pieces professionally restored for reuse .Want to offer furniture refurbishment as part of your services? Get in touch with us to find out more and how this could work alongside your business.

Comprehensive Second-Hand Office Furniture Recycling Process


For office furniture that can't be refurbished, we operate an end-to-end recycling operation. Our facility breaks down office furniture into specific material streams:


For plastics, we use specialised processing to create reusable materials. Metal components are separated and processed for remanufacturing. Wood elements are responsibly recycled, and foam is processed through dedicated recycling streams. Everything is tracked and documented, providing complete transparency for your clients

Documentation That Adds Value to Your Business

The market is changing. Clients increasingly need to prove their environmental credentials. Think about the last client you worked with. They probably had strict environmental policies and needed ESG documentation for everything. By partnering with Coggin SOS, you can offer a complete, documented, environmentally responsible solution.


We handle all the complex parts. Every piece of second-hand office furniture that comes to our facility is professionally assessed. Quality items are refurbished to original manufacturer specifications, complete with a 12-month warranty. Everything else goes through our zero-landfill recycling process, with materials carefully separated and processed. Your clients get detailed documentation showing exactly how their furniture was handled, including Savings Certificates and reports.


Need to offer documented recycling services to win more corporate contracts? Get in touch with our team today and let’s discuss the best way forward.

How It Works In Practice

Let's say you're quoting for an office move. During your site survey, you spot that about 40% of their furniture won't be making the journey. Instead of seeing this as a problem, you now have an opportunity to offer additional value.


We provide you with simple assessment tools and guidelines. You don't need to become a furniture expert - we handle all the technical details. Just identify what's moving and what isn't. On moving day, everything happens smoothly. Furniture for the new office goes in your vehicles as usual. Anything that's not moving comes to our facility.


Your client gets one point of contact, one invoice, and complete peace of mind knowing everything is being handled responsibly and sustainably. 

Start Offering More with Your Removal Services

The days of simply moving office furniture from A to B are fading. Today's clients want - and increasingly need - complete solutions that include responsible furniture disposal. Many removal companies in the UK are already adapting to this change, winning more contracts and building stronger client relationships through comprehensive service offerings.


Want to enhance your removal services? Let's discuss how a partnership with Coggin SOS can help you offer more to your clients. Our team can walk you through exactly how our processes work and how they integrate with your existing services. Contact us today to explore how we can work together.


Remember, when your clients ask about their old furniture, you want to be able to say "yes, we have a complete, professional solution for that." Let's make that possible together.

Reworking Workspaces: How Refurbished and Resized Office Desks Save Money and the Planet

By Ida Gorecka • June 2, 2025
Our approach to workspace design is evolving as organisations recognise the enormous waste and environmental impact of the traditional "buy new, dispose later" furniture cycle. Every year, organisations across the UK retire thousands of perfectly usable office desks-not because they’re damaged, but due to layout changes, branding updates, or relocations. These desks often end up in landfills , despite being made from valuable materials that require large amounts of energy and resources to produce. This disposable mentality is costing your business money AND damaging the planet by wasting valuable resources. But what if there was a solution that saved you money while reducing your carbon footprint ? By choosing refurbished and resized office desks, you can make smarter, more sustainable choices that help reduce waste , cut costs , and create premium-quality offices - all without the lengthy lead times that accompany new furniture purchases. If you've never considered refurbished desks before, you're in the right place to learn why they should be your obvious choice for your next project. But even if you have, keep reading for valuable insights into how refurbished and resized desks can improve sustainability initiatives, maximise cost savings, and support long-term business goals.

Finding the Balance: Quality Seating Without the Environmental Cost

By Ida Gorecka • May 25, 2025
Did you know that the average office worker spends around 1,700 hours a year sitting in their chair? That's a staggering 70% of your working life spent in a single piece of furniture.

In this article, we’ll explore why refurbished office chairs aren’t just a good option-they're often the smarter one. From environmental impact that can tick off your ESG targets to ergonomic design and cost savings, this is your guide to finding the perfect seat. Our warehouse is stocked with top-brand refurbished chairs - ready to deliver in days, not weeks. Get in touch to check availability.

Closing the Loop: How Office Furniture Can Drive the Circular Economy Forward

By Ida Gorecka • May 19, 2025
Ever thought about how your office furniture connects to sustainability ? Probably not. But perhaps you should. The circular economy isn't some distant concept only relevant to manufacturing giants or packaging companies. It's a practical model that directly impacts how you furnish, update, and clear your office. At its heart, the circular economy challenges you to keep materials in use. It's your chance to reject the standard "buy, use, discard" approach that has dominated the industry for decades. It's your opportunity to turn office furniture from a recurring cost into a lasting asset. At Coggin SOS, we partner with organisations like yours across the UK, helping you transition to a circular furnishing model: refurbishing , reusing , and responsibly recycling your office furniture. Our mission is straightforward: help you make your furniture last longer, cost less, and waste nothing. Explore our wide range of refurbished office furniture in our inventory . You'll find quality, sustainability, and value, all waiting for you in one place.
