Furniture recycling and storage difficulties, companies lose money to handle their own

Recycling resource recycling and waste disposal are key points

According to the announcement of the tender by the Beijing Municipal Commission of Commerce, the renewable resource recycling enterprise must engage in the recycling of renewable resources, and be registered with the industrial and commercial department, the competent commercial authority or its authorized institution; the waste-free disposal enterprise must be issued by the State Environmental Protection Administration. Hazardous Waste Business License. According to industry insiders, the current market is more chaotic, and there are fewer qualified formal enterprises. In addition, the subsidies are not enough, and the enterprises are not profitable, and they are also unwilling to bid.

Analysts pointed out that the scrapping of bids for the recycling of recycling resource recycling enterprises and waste innocuous treatment enterprises may bring certain difficulties to the implementation of the furniture replacement policy. In fact, the recycling and disposal of old furniture is also the biggest problem in the previous trade-in process.

On October 16, the reporter visited the Real Estate Furniture Recycling Center. According to Yin Xiaodong, the person in charge of the site, there are more than 9,000 homes shipped to the processing center every month. The old furniture that has been recycled should be sorted by category, and the furniture that can be reused will be sold twice after cleaning and repairing. For furniture, sofas, mattresses, etc. that cannot be reused, they are disassembled into five categories: sheet, metal, glass, fabric and hazardous waste, and are sorted into stocks. According to the introduction, the amount of waste products is about 120-130 tons per month, of which about 90 tons is sheet metal.

At the scene, the reporter saw that most of the recycled furniture was dilapidated, and most of them had reached the point where they could no longer be used. Yin Xiaodong told reporters that only 5% of the furniture can be resold and the price is very low. “A set of leather sofas 200 yuan, small bedside cabinets (bedside cabinet decoration renderings), small stools also about 10 yuan. We generally sell to the old furniture recyclers, they will pull to Dongba (community network forum shops), The old furniture market near Langfang is sold again."

For the recycled resources, Yin Xiaodong said that they are all based on the recycling market price. "For example, the board is about 100-120 yuan / ton, plus cloth, metal, sponge, etc., each month's income is about 30,000-60,000 yuan." According to its disclosure, the entire inventory cost is more than one million yuan a year. , plus labor costs, water and electricity costs, a monthly cost of at least 200,000 yuan. "What we can do is to minimize losses."

Yin Xiaodong said that on the one hand, enterprises invest more money, on the other hand, there are fewer waste-free disposal enterprises, and it is also a difficult factor to deal with waste furniture. “The company we work with doesn’t really want to take hazardous waste because transportation and labor costs are very high. In addition, there are very few qualified companies that can handle waste without harm. Our cooperation with the current company is also a waste. It was found after a lot of trouble."

Can establish a second-hand furniture trading market

Wang Jianguo, Manager of the Federal Sales Company Beijing Sales Company

We have done things to recycle furniture, because we have more solid wood furniture, and there are more repairs when recycling, but we are not good at it. Since recycled furniture is basically useless, there is a large part of the cost of processing. I think that if you can sort out the recycled furniture, the store can get the second-hand furniture trading market, and it is better to take the lead in the store.

Waste disposal is not very good

Wu Nani, Vice President, Qumei Group

We have had a free trade-in service, and we mainly focus on sofa products, but most of the furniture we recycle is displayed in the museum, and the rest of us are dismantled.

We have not studied it in depth about how to deal with old furniture. However, the way of disposing of waste materials is not really good at present, which is not conducive to the environment and causes great waste.
