The Herman Miller Aeron is the most-bought used office chair in the UK — we pay up to £180 each.
If you're clearing offices in 2026, chances are you've got Aerons. They've been the default premium task chair in UK workplaces since the late 90s, and a Grade A second-hand Aeron still has a serious resale market — primarily home offices, growing start-ups, and refit projects looking to spec premium without spending £1,500 a seat brand new. We pay £180 per chair on collection for clean, fully-functional Aerons (Size B, Classic generation). Higher for Remastered (£250). Lower for chairs with torn pellicle, missing tilt limiters or seized-up lifts — but rarely zero.
Used Aeron resale value sits between £150 and £250 per chair as of 2026, depending on generation, condition and configuration. We pay £180 flat for Grade A Classic Aerons. Aeron Remastered (post-2017) goes up to £250.
Aerons are one of the easiest chairs to refurb and resell. The pellicle mesh wipes clean, parts are fully interchangeable, and there's a strong secondary market across UK businesses, home offices and start-ups. Nothing fit for use ever sees a skip — about 98% are refurbished and resold.
Same headline price wherever you are. Below are the cities where we run dedicated weekly routes — pickup is faster, but we collect UK-wide.
We pay up to £180 per Aeron in Grade A condition (clean, fully working tilt and gas lift, no rips in the mesh, all arms intact). Mid-grade examples typically sit between £90 and £140. Final price is confirmed against photos — send a few snaps and we'll come back same day.
The Remastered launched in 2017 with a redesigned 8Z Pellicle mesh, an updated tilt mechanism, refreshed colour palette and PostureFit SL lumbar by default. Visually the easiest tell is the back: the Remastered has a smoother, more uniform mesh weave, while the Classic (1994–2017) has a more pronounced grid pattern. Remastered chairs fetch around £70 more per chair on resale.
Flip the chair over. There's a small stamp on the bottom of the seat pan with a single letter — A is the small (typically up to 5'2"), B is the medium (covers ~5'2"–6'2", the most common by far), C is the large (6'2"+). Size B is by far the easiest to resell, but we buy all three sizes at the same headline price.
Single chairs work — we run weekly van routes through every UK postcode area, so a one-chair pickup from a home office sits alongside the 200-chair clearances we do for FM teams. The price per chair is the same.
It needs to function — gas lift holds, tilt locks, arms move, no rips through the mesh. Cosmetic dust, light scuffs and faded fabric edges are all fine; we refurbish in-house. If the gas lift is dead or the mesh has a hole punched through it, we still buy at the lower grade price (around £40-£60).
