Preloved furniture
Someone's old sofa, your new front room
Quality second-hand furniture at prices that make a real home affordable — and every sale pays for housing someone who hasn't got one.
Why preloved
Good furniture, fair prices, better reasons
Everything here was donated by someone local, checked over by our team, and priced so that a proper home is affordable. What you pay goes straight back into housing people.
Priced to be affordable
Sofas, tables, beds and wardrobes at a fraction of new. Furnishing a first flat should not mean a credit agreement.
Kept out of landfill
Every piece that finds a second home is one less skip run, and one less thing built from scratch.
Every sale funds a home
The money stays local and pays for housing and support for people facing homelessness across the North East. Registered charity no. 1145726.
Good to know
One of a kind, so it goes quickly
Preloved stock is donated, which means most of it is a one-off. What you can see here is what we have — when a piece sells, that is the last of it, and new things land all the time. If something catches your eye it is worth ringing before you travel.
- Come and see it at our Bishop Auckland shop before you buy
- Ring ahead if you are travelling — we cannot hold items indefinitely
- Everything is checked over by our team before it goes out
- Delivery is available, or collect free during opening hours
The other half of it
Got furniture to pass on?
Everything on this page is here because somebody donated it. If you have a sofa, a table or a bed with life left in it, we will come and collect it free — and it either goes straight to someone moving into a new place, or into the shop to raise funds.
- Free collection across County Durham and Hartlepool
- Goes to someone setting up a home, or raises money that houses them
- Out of your way, and out of landfill
Gift vouchers
Not sure which one? Let them choose.
A Cornerstone gift voucher works on anything we make — a bench, a shed, a planter, a mud kitchen. They pick the piece and the finish, and every penny still goes into housing and supporting people facing homelessness across the North East.
Affordable for you. Life-changing for someone else.
Your money stays local and helps end homelessness in the North East.
