Our Future Community Hub (Coming Soon)


We’re working towards opening a dedicated recycling and upcycling hub where local people can:


Drop off recyclable items and materials

See our upcycled products and eco-friendly goods in action

Learn about sustainable living through workshops and events

Chat with our team about ways you can support your community and the environment.


Until then, we are operating from a small unit, collecting items by arrangement.


Opening Hours for Collections


Currently, collections and drop-offs are by appointment only.

This helps us keep operations efficient and safe while we grow.


Once our hub opens, our planned opening hours will be:

Tuesday – Saturday: 10am – 4pm

Sunday – Monday: Closed


How to Donate Items


We’re currently accepting the following:

  • Large appliances (even if broken) – e.g., washing machines, dryers, dishwashers.

  • Old textiles and clothing – for recycling into cleaning rags and other eco-products.

  • Wires, cables and old electronics – for material recovery.

  • Some reusable furniture items – e.g. tables, chairs, and storage units (limited availability for bulky furniture due to space).

Important Information:

  • Upholstered furniture must have a valid fire safety label.

  • We can not currently accept fridges, freezers due to hazardous waste.
