Cost and carbon

The Case for Refurbished

Sustainable and Cost Effective

Professionally refurbished office furniture delivers savings of up to 80% less than buying new. It also significantly reduces carbon impact by keeping furniture in use and out of landfill.

Sustainability is built into how we operate, not added as a marketing layer. Every item we refurbish is one less item manufactured new and one less item sent to landfill. For businesses with ESG commitments, we provide full carbon reporting to support your sustainability documentation.

Our standard

Quality Assurance and Warranty

Every item supplied by Coggin SOS is professionally inspected, refurbished to commercial standards, and covered by a 12-month warranty on the parts we replace, subject to our terms and conditions. This is not a goodwill gesture. It is a reflection of the standard we hold ourselves to before anything leaves our facility.

If it does not meet our standard, it gets recycled. It does not get sold.

Reviews

Rated by the Businesses We Supply

The team at Coggin helped me with an office refurb this summer and the service was 10/10. No pressure was applied and Jess allowed me to plan and take my time. We went ahead with 10 desks and multiple storage units, also replacing my old furniture and recycling it. Install was extremely smooth with minimal disturbance to our sales floor. We will be using Coggin to refurb 2 other offices in 2026 and 2027.

We used Coggin for our recent office refit. They removed for recycling our old office kit and supplied c. 30 refurbished chairs, at a fraction of the cost of buying new. From start to finish, Jess was a delight to work with, being prompt with information, keeping us informed and being flexible when we changed our minds. Would recommend these chaps in a heartbeat.

Dealt with them for the first time recently. They were great, really friendly and helpful staff with a good ethos. We were able to save money whilst making environmental savings too.

Common questions

Refurbished Office Furniture Explained

Is the furniture refurbished before delivery?

Yes. Every item is professionally refurbished to order before it leaves our facility. This includes cleaning, mechanical inspection, reupholstery where required, and quality checks. You receive furniture that performs to commercial standards, not clearance stock sold as-is.

What is the difference between used, second hand and refurbished office furniture?

Used and second hand refer to furniture sold as it left the last office, in its existing condition, which is what most people picture when they hear those terms. Refurbished means professionally restored to a defined standard. Everything we supply is refurbished regardless of what you call it when you search.

Can you handle large quantities?

Yes. We regularly support large-scale and multi-site projects for organisations including councils, universities, and corporate businesses. Contact us to discuss your project scope and timescales.

Is there a warranty?

All refurbished furniture supplied by Coggin SOS comes with a 12-month warranty on the parts we replace, subject to our terms and conditions.

How quickly can you deliver?

Timescales depend on the size of your order and refurbishment requirements. Smaller orders can typically be turned around within 1 to 2 weeks. Larger projects are planned around your schedule. Tell us your timeframe in the enquiry form and we will confirm availability.

Do you offer delivery and installation?

Yes. We handle the full process: sourcing, refurbishment, delivery, and installation. You deal with one supplier from start to finish.

Do you deliver to my area?

Yes. We deliver and install across England, Scotland and Wales, through our own team and our nationwide logistics network. Delivery is priced into the quote and never added afterwards.
