Percentage of respondents Figure 7.14 Alternative disposal routes for sofas according to ACORN group 70% 60% 50% 40% 30% 20% 10% 0% Offline Disposal Route Acorn 1 Acorn 2 Acorn 3 Acorn 4 Acorn 5 Table 7.6 shows the two most popular alternative disposal routes for each of the priority items. This is shown in graphical form in Figure 7.15. The routes shown in the table are those that are most likely to be used by consumers if they choose not to exchange an item online. It can be seen that for furniture, both home and office, the most popular disposal route is through a charitable collection or outlet, followed by donation to friends or family. For all electrical items except mobile phones, the most popular disposal route is the local tip or recycling centre (i.e. HWRC). Again the second most popular route is donating the item to friends or family, except in the case of washing machines, for which arranging a council collection is the second most popular route. For all clothing – leather jackets, cotton shirts and jumpers – the most popular response was to dispose of the item through a charitable collection or outlet, followed by a second hand shop. The mobile phone category shows slightly different results from all the other electrical items, in that the most popular disposal route is to donate the phone to friends or family, very closely followed by disposing of it through a charitable collection or outlet.

For the clothing categories, it can be seen that the significantly most popular disposal route is through a charity collection or outlet, with over 60% of respondents stating this route for each priority item. Similarly, this was easily the most popular route for the furniture categories. Whilst taking items to the tip or recycling centre (HWRC) was the most common response amongst the electrical items (excluding mobile phones), the graph shows that this was also a fairly common response for many of the furniture categories. For these larger items, there were also a reasonable number of respondents who said that they would arrange for a council collection for larger items – as is the case with washing machines.
