Resale & Pre-Owned Focus

We prioritize well-made, pre-owned furniture that extends the life of quality pieces and reduces waste from manufacturing new items.

Shared Container Shipping

Consolidated shipping means fewer containers, less fuel consumption, and reduced carbon footprint compared to individual shipments.

Quality Over Quantity

By focusing on durable, well-made furniture, we help you invest in affordable pieces that last longer, reducing the need for frequent replacements and saving money over time.

Local Foundation Donations

Upgrading your furniture? I help coordinate furniture swaps and donations to local foundations, ensuring the pieces you no longer need go directly to families and organizations in the community.

Sustainability & the Circular Economy

Tuquero & Co. follows a circular approach to furnishing by keeping well-made furniture in use longer, rather than defaulting to new production. Research on the furniture industry shows that extending product lifecycles through reuse and redistribution can significantly reduce material use and waste compared to linear make-use-dispose models.¹

Studies also highlight the important role second-hand and resale-focused businesses play in advancing circular economies by actively redirecting quality goods back into use instead of letting them become waste.² By sourcing pre-owned and showroom furniture from the mainland and consolidating shipments to Maui, Tuquero & Co. applies these principles in a way that's practical, accessible, and responsive to island needs.
