When choosing outdoor furniture, it’s important to find pieces that are attractive, durable, and easy to care for. Many people are drawn to traditional options like wood or metal, but high-quality plastic outdoor furniture is quickly becoming a favorite for good reason. At By the Yard, we specialize in premium plastic furniture that offers unbeatable performance, comfort, and long-term value. Here’s why plastic patio furniture might be the smartest choice for your space.

1. Virtually Maintenance-Free

One of the biggest advantages of plastic outdoor furniture is its low-maintenance appeal. Unlike wood, which may need staining or sealing, or metal, which can rust, high-density plastic requires no upkeep beyond an occasional rinse. You won’t need to repaint, refinish, or worry about deterioration due to weather exposure. Just set it up and enjoy.

2. Built to Withstand the Elements

Quality plastic furniture is made to handle tough weather conditions. It won’t rot, warp, rust, or crack like other materials. Rain, snow, and sun are no match for high-density polyethylene (HDPE), the recycled material used in all By the Yard products. It also won’t absorb moisture, making it an excellent choice for any climate.

3. Eco-Friendly and Sustainable

At By the Yard, we make our furniture from recycled plastic milk jugs, giving new life to materials that would otherwise end up in landfills. Choosing plastic furniture not only helps reduce waste but also minimizes the need to cut down trees for wood furniture. And when you're done using it years down the road, it’s recyclable again.

4. Durable and Long-Lasting

Plastic furniture is incredibly strong and resistant to damage. It doesn’t splinter like wood or dent like metal. Whether you're hosting family gatherings or relaxing on the weekend, you can count on plastic patio furniture to hold up over time, even with daily use.

5. Safe for Families

Plastic outdoor furniture has smooth edges and won't splinter, making it a safe option for families with kids. You can place it anywhere in your yard without worrying about sharp corners, rusted bolts, or broken wood slats.

6. Lightweight and Easy to Move

Whether you're rearranging your outdoor space or setting up for a special occasion, plastic furniture makes it easy. Lightweight yet sturdy, it can be moved without strain and repositioned with ease.

7. Stylish Designs and Color Options

Forget the outdated image of flimsy white plastic chairs. Modern plastic outdoor furniture comes in a wide range of sophisticated designs and earth-tone colors. At By the Yard, we offer more than 200 different styles to complement any patio, deck, or garden setting.
