Queens Cross tenant Linda Burton was one of the first people to benefit from the new Total Homes partnership. The furniture and appliances are rescued from house clearances and brought back to as-new standard by Total Homes before distribution to tenants and a new lease of life.
Goods are delivered within 24 hours, fitted if required, and come with a 12 month warranty.

The new partnership is based on a circular economy model, an economic system aimed at eliminating waste and promoting the continual use of resources through reuse, repair, refurbishment and recycling.
"When I needed a new washing machine Total Homes delivered and fitted a new one the same day, their service was excellent and the machine is just what I needed," she said.
The two organisations have been working together for two years and this new closer partnership will now see Queens Cross employ a full circular model for all its house clearance works.
Queens Cross' Director of Property, Enterprise & Regeneration, Rona Anderson said: "We are all working to reduce our carbon emission over the next few years and a circular economy model is an excellent way of making a contribution to this. Not only is it keeping goods out of land fill it is also providing our tenants with a cost effective way of furnishing their homes with what they need."
