IKEA will pay you to return old furniture, here’s how
If you’ve been wanting to update your home decor, IKEA’s new Buy Back and Resell program may make it a little easier.
The Swedish retailer is willing to buy your old IKEA furniture so you can put it toward something new, while also assisting in moving toward a more sustainable lifestyle.
To get the ball rolling on your store credit, fill out a form on its website, where you’ll then receive an emailed quote. Then, bring your fully assembled furniture to a participating IKEA store along with a copy of your quote and buyback number. A store employee will then give you a final price. You’ll get store credit and your furniture gets a second lease on life in the As-Is department.
Some items — like non-IKEA products, outdoor products and mattresses — are not currently eligible for participation in the buy-back program.
The program is available at participating locations, including Atlanta. For more information visit Ikea’s website.
