Upcycling expert EJ Osborne scours the skip at Woking Recycling Centre, on a mission to save three tip-bound items that he can restore, rejuvenate, and sell on for a profit. To help him turn trash into cash, EJ enlists the help of the Bristol Upholstery Collective to give an outdated armchair some creative flair, while blacksmiths Bex and Dave are tasked with turning old scaffolding props into something special. EJ has a collection of wooden floorboards to get creative with, but will his upcycling escapades result in a profit for the items' unsuspecting owners?

At Walsall Recycling Centre in the West Midlands, Jay Blades looks for three items that he can take, transform and turn a profit on. Creative duo Josh and Oli have to show their mettle with some discarded brass, while upholsterer Ray Clarke tries to transform an unwanted pair of chairs. For his own project, Jay takes on a tired, old cabinet, but will he succeed in making money for nothing?
