家具のリサイクル展 (Minato furniture reuse)
Minato assesses furniture that is still good, collects it free, and resells it, a municipal reuse programme with published criteria for what it will and will not take.
Right for you if
- Sound furniture, if you live in Minato.
- It has to cost nothing.
- You cannot move it yourself. They come and collect.
- You can get it there under your own steam.
- You would rather it was used again than buried.
Look elsewhere if
- You need it gone today.
- It is broken, dirty or missing parts.
- You live outside the area it serves.

Verification
Verified against an official source

That means we read a published source and it said this. It does not mean we watched them do it, or followed the material afterwards, that is a separate, deeper check this has not been through. How we check →

Why use it
It is free where the ordinary bulky collection is not, and the ward publishes its refusal criteria rather than leaving you to guess. Minato residents only.

Where your things go
A named destination is worth more than a stated intention, and both are worth more than silence. This is the row to read before you book: if your item's row is empty, ask them on the phone and tell us what they say.
Not documented yet. This operator has not published what happens to each kind of item, and we have not been able to establish it from anywhere else. That is the gap, stated rather than hidden. If you ask them, tell us what they say.
Does it actually work
The part no company website tells you. Some of this comes from our checks, some from readers who used the service, and where nobody has told us yet, it says so.

What happens to it
- Put back into use
- Donated to an organisation that will use it
This describes the route the item takes, as the operator states it. We do not claim a recovery rate we have not seen evidence for.
What readers told us
Used them recently?
How long you waited, what they refused, whether anyone picked up the phone. Those are the three facts no website publishes and the ones the next reader needs.
