The secondary recycling of used household appliances furniture can not do its best.



Residents’ Old Items Enter the Second-Hand Market

Mr. Song recently moved into a new house in Fushan’s six districts and was planning a renovation. While going through the old furniture and appliances in his previous home, he found a local recycler who could take them away. For these “oddities,” as he called them, it was enough that someone would come and remove them. The price wasn’t really important. He mentioned that a double bed with a mattress could be sold for 30 yuan, a 26-inch TV for 40 yuan, and an old electric water heater for 50 yuan. Since the recycler didn’t even look at the tables and benches, Mr. Song finally gave those items to someone else.

The old items from Mr. Song's family were quickly loaded onto a small truck and taken directly to the Qinghai Road flea market. “Most of it ends up here, and we sort it out,” said Master Chen, a recycler who handles such goods.

According to industry sources, most of the old furniture and household appliances collected from residents end up in the same market.

The bed, TV, and water heater from Mr. Song’s home were sold to three different shops in the market. “If they’re in good condition, they’re sold as second-hand items. Most of what we collect is functional. It’s only slightly damaged, and no one has major issues.” One shop owner explained.

After visiting over ten thrift stores, the reporter found that most of these old items are handled by individuals—migrant workers, people just starting out, or those renting homes without full furnishings. Some buy damaged appliances, while others sell them to landlords who then use them in their rental properties. Others are used by small hotels looking for basic equipment like TVs or beds.

Waste Stations Manually Dismantle and Send to Furnaces

Whether they end up in the flea market or are taken directly from homes, the majority of these old items eventually reach waste recycling stations. These stations act more like small dismantling plants, but the process is largely manual and done piece by piece.

On the afternoon of the 28th, the reporter visited a waste recycling station near Hexi’s Tailiu Road. In the yard, there were piles of scrap metal, wires, tires, and plastics. “We do some basic sorting because recycling manufacturers have specific material requirements,” said Mr. Han, the station owner. Once appliances arrive, they are often broken down into large parts. For example, a TV might be separated into circuit boards, wires, and picture tubes. Each part is sent to a different factory for reuse or melting. The finest level of sorting is usually just stripping the wires.

“We occasionally recycle old furniture, but it’s not profitable,” Mr. Han said. “The most valuable part is the wood. Once the furniture is delivered, we dismantle it into boards, which are then processed by companies. Some parts, like picture tubes, are useless and end up as trash.”

Classification Remains Very Basic and Often Leads to Waste

Despite the simple process from households to the second-hand market to waste recycling stations, the classification and disassembly rarely achieve the best use of materials. During a visit to the Qinghai Road flea market, the reporter noticed that many items are either partially dismantled or poorly sorted. Some usable scraps and parts are discarded as garbage, leaving their final destination unclear.

Most of the operators in this chain are individual businesses, with limited scale and resources. Due to low profits, there is little incentive for thorough dismantling or proper sorting. “These boards don’t bring in much money. A few days ago, I processed two big bags and made less than 200 yuan,” said Mr. Zhou, a worker at a recycling store. “Dismantling is just a side job. Sometimes, we don’t even bother.”

At professional recycling stations, the lack of motivation isn’t just about money—it’s also about the effort required. “The more detailed the disassembly and the finer the classification, the higher the value and the better the acceptance by manufacturers,” said Mr. Han. However, without the necessary funds, manpower, space, and other resources, such efforts are simply not feasible.
