To give away: Can you put old furniture on the street?

You see it again and again: old furniture on the sidewalk. But can you put your facility on the street for free removal? How to explain it to you.

Put old furniture on the street - is that allowed?

If you leave your old facility on private property, this is of course allowed.
It looks different if you park the furniture on public premises - for example on the sidewalk. You can't do that.
In theory, placing old furniture in public places is like putting your household waste on the sidewalk.

If you have furniture that is still too beautiful for bulky waste, you can give it away, exchange it or donate it.

Giving away the old facility is a good alternative to bulky waste: There are many websites on the Internet that you can use to give away used items.
Exchanges are also a good idea to make something useful out of the old furniture. The city of Berlin, for example, has launched a swap exchange to prevent parking on the street. A similar project exists in the city of Hamburg.
Donating the old furniture is also an excellent idea to give the used furniture a new meaning. Institutions such as Caritas are always happy to receive donations in kind. However, only give furniture that is still reasonably beautiful.
You can also try to monetize your facility. Sites such as eBay classifieds are suitable for this purpose. Here, too, you can set items as gifts.
