Any clothing you may have that is too nice to throw away but you would rather give it directly to the community / community causes then a charity shop - or maybe you don’t want to have to load up the car & carry it all? please message us to arrange a collection I have the next 3 days off work 🙂

Thankyou to the people who gave us items to mainly pass onto the church over the Xmas break. As charity shops turned people away & banks were overflowing this time of year. There was more items given then the picture shows I just didnt get more pics. We have also given things away directly to people for free. We enjoy donating to the church because they do a stay & play group, they fundraise to keep there community groups going, they sell things for absolute penny’s plus they also give things away for free. Really good community spirit plus 0 waste and we’re all about that! Back to work full time at our jobs now but we will update the page when we next get time off (if we do/ if we have time). Lots of reusable items being saved from landfill is a successful Xmas for us👍🏼

Lots of kids bits given to Weston shore preschool!
(Of course the bin bag split when emptying the boot… always the way)

A huge amount of Toys games books (a bit of everything really) gone to woolston Methodist church - that many items I couldn’t get it all in on the photo!

Loads of these items were given from our lovely client who has encouraged her children to give away there old toys to those less fortunate! Also the rest has come from my loft/ my son who is also encouraged to give to those less fortunate!

I still have some puzzles and toys to go out aswell! Thankyou so much! Lots of happy faces this Xmas!

Oh & most importantly not a bin or tip in sight! All recycled with 0 waste! That’s what we like to see!

While taking my child to a hospital appointment last week we actually donated two bags for life of groceries plus nappies to Ronald McDonald’s house! They kindly gave me a baby walker and activity center which is being given to a mum for free 🙂 So guys if you have any brand new sealed food items they are always happy to take it from you! Along with many food banks in the area who will also appreciate the food!🥘

Hi guys

Sorry for our silence we have been running this against our full time jobs. It’s very hard to schedule collections around working full time!

I have some time off work and have decided to do a recycling run in the local area as I have seen an increasing amount of CDS/DVDS/BOOKS/RECORDS being given away for free then being left unclaimed.
I’ve seen someone put two bin bags of media into there green bin.
I’ve seen a charity shop turn away dvds and then the person said there going in the bin then, so of course I said I’d take them to redistribute.
There was a huge bag of DVDs and games left outside the clothing bins in west end. Wich is a huge waste. Also a huge amount of loose cds were spotted at the clothing banks in bitterne just sat outside being rained on😖 it’s such a huge waste and also really bad for the environment.

We have worked so so hard to find contacts that continually take these off us as they can be recycled/given away to charity/used for fund raising/given away for free to individuals

Also if you do have Clothes/Toys/Decor/Shoes/toiletries/ household electricals (like a toaster or hair dryer) or generally anything you think another family can use we will collect these off you at the same time

Sorry no bulky items! Only a small car and again this is a tiny little business so I simply can’t take furniture or bulky items

So if you can’t get to a charity shop or they’ve turned away your donations. Maybe you’re elderly or disabled? Maybe you are an eco warrior and want to be sure nothing you’re giving away is binned? If the clothing recycling bins are full. If no one is collecting the items you’re trying to shift we will come and take them! Please message to arrange a time 🙂

We are a 0 waste business. We really try not bin anything. SO PLEASE NO ITEMS that are of no use (ie one shoe/ an old pillow/ soiled items)

Our biggest carbon footprint is a car we collect with. Our main focus is keeping items out of landfill and using one man’s trash and giving it to a different family to treasure. Meaning that working class people can use there money on better things then clothes & entertainment for the kids. We do not go by means and we will help any family no matter where you work or what you do.

Again NOT a charity, we run this at a profit (sometimes🫣 or the profit is minuscule😂)
We do not pay our bills with this - at most we make enough to cover the petrol & time plus buy a Chinese at the end of the week.

We are a 0 waste ethical house clearance and recycling company who work for free in exchange for keeping around 10/15% of the goods we receive

So yes!

For the next couple weeks
DVDS / CDS / CASSETTES / GAMES / RECORDS
All being collected for free
Plus any other items you have that you think someone else might get some use out of!

Main areas at the second
Sholing Weston thornhill woolston merryoak bitterne netley hamble but we can go further afield if need be !

Please message this page with a day that works for you. This will probably be the only collection I can do this year as I go start a new job on the end of October.

These have now been claimed

Hi, we have boys clothing due to come in, we have 1 year to 3 years still left to give away for free before its passed onto chairty shops. If you are available to collect from Weston and are in need please message us

We have donated a crate of food, some new toiletries and nappy’s to Ronald McDonald house for Xmas. Not nearly as much as we hoped but we are very happy with what we could give. We also have took some recyclable toy waste from them and dispensed that out between chairty shops and for free on Facebook 🙂

This is such a shame to see! In bitterne today
All these lovely clothes absolutely ruined and probably now going to the bin instead of being recycled😨 Please if your clearing out don’t let your items end up like these! The amount of families that have gone with out all year, let’s start 2024 by giving back to families who work hard but never have a penny to show for it due to the cost of living.

We will collect for FREE
We sell on around 15% of our items
And we donate/give away the rest
Our passion is RECYCLING! A zero waste business! The only carbon footprint we have is the car we use to collect. Our passion is decreasing poverty by giving family’s clothing, toys, household items and so on meaning they can save some money for other things.

We are not a charity, we have never claimed to be. we are just a recycling business who just wants to help the community and reduce waste & pollution. We belive you can have a business, make a profit but also benefit 100s of people at the same time.

If you have any toys , games, clothes, small household items, small electricals (from consoles to hair dryers) , shoes, teddy’s, DVDs or generally anything that you feel like someone else could use please pop a message

Sorry no books we have no where for them to go at the second and we do not bin off items so please no books
Please only items good enough to be used again as we said we don’t want anything to go in the bin so please nothing that is trashed

Thank you!
