How Scrapstore can help your business save money and the environment.

Scrapstore accepts donations from the general public, groups and businesses.

Why Re-use? Re-using waste materials is common sense!

By donating your companies unwanted materials to us, it saves the resources and energy needed to produce new materials and involves none of the energy consumption associated with recycling and reprocessing. Re-using materials economically self sustaining and unlike domestic recycling, requires little government or industry subsidy.

Who Benefits? Businesses can save money by reducing their waste disposal costs.

Businesses may be able to use their materials donations in working towards ISO 14001 or BS 8555 environmental standards management for industry.

 

  • Company employees benefit from a feel good factor when good materials are put back into the community as a useful resource rather than being thrown away.
  • The tonnage of waste going into landfill is reduced, benefitting the environment and saving money for local authorities by extending the life of the landfill sites.
  • Local children and adults are given access to affordable creative resources.
  • The community benefits as volunteering opportunities are created from materials that would have been buried forever.
