Much of what we provide is second-hand and has been donated by other households in the area, who no longer want or need it. Saving the environment: Re-use not only enables our customers to purchase good quality low cost household items but by extending the lifespan of the items we sell it helps reduce environmental impact.

Services
Ipswich Furniture Project is a registered charity formed 1989 with the express desire to alleviate material deprivation and poverty through the provision quality furniture and white goods to low income households.
Through re-use, recycling and refurbishment we help households in need access furniture, white goods and other household items at affordable prices - providing everything from a single item, to a fully furnished home.
Material deprivation is a key issue for those on low incomes and can lead to households going without essential items such as cookers, beds, dinning furniture and washing machines, or taking on debt in order to buy essential items from traditional retailers.

We collect donations of reusable household furniture and some electrical items free of charge for resale in our Westgate Street shop.
In most cases donated reusable items are provided to low income families either by a grant or sold at a reduced price.
Some items are sold to the general public to help fund our efforts.
We can only reuse good quality useable items, as there is a cost to us for disposing of, or recycling other items.
We provide a chargeable scrap collection service for electrical appliances that cannot be reused.
