Nothing we do could happen without the support of the community

Thank you

Stirling Reuse Hub works closely with Stirling Council and the local community to encourage reuse of items rather than losing them to landfill. Alongside our team of volunteers, we function and safety test all products before sale. We also work closely with a range of charities and council teams to help ensure that everyone in our community has access to items they need. We love to welcome new volunteers and collaborate with the Learning and Employability Team at Stirling Council, providing the opportunity for people with barriers to employment to gain new skills and confidence within the workforce. All money made through the sale of reused and upcycled items supports the continuation of our charitable work, to help protect our environment and support our community.

WHEN CAN YOU DONATE?

- Drop off at the Reuse Hub on a Weds 10am - 4pm,  Sat 10am - 4pm and Sun 11am - 1pm. 

- Donations of furniture only can also be made to our containers at Polmaise Recycling Centre, subject to availability.

DONATING LARGE FURNITURE?

 

We can uplift furniture within 15miles of the hub for £25 per van load. Please send an email to reuse@transitionstirling.org.uk, with a few photos of the furniture you'd like to donate, along with dimensions so we can assess if we can rehome it.  Uplifts of furniture are subject to location, demand and condition of items. If you could include as much information as possible, it will allow us to deal with your enquiry more promptly. 

​

WHAT CAN WE TAKE?

​

Thank you so much for thinking of us, and your kind donations. 

​

As a Reuse Charity, we are supported by REVOLVE.  

​

Revolve is Zero Waste Scotland’s support programme for the reuse sector in Scotland. Revolve offers information and resources to support reuse businesses to meet legal obligations, follow best practice and to work more effectively and efficiently. 

  

Therefore, All items should be in saleable condition. 

  • Clean 

  • Damage free 

  • Rust free 

  • From a smoke free home ​

​

Additionally, we pay £160 per tonne to dispose of items. We therefore have to carefully check donations to make sure they meet REVOLVE standards, that we have capacity and can find a way to reuse your items.  

​

How you can help 

You can help by thoroughly cleaning items before donating and ensuring that they are in good condition. We can do small repairs subject to the availability of staff or volunteers.  

We thank you for your understanding when we cannot take items. We will always do our best to suggest alternative options to reuse them.  

Please Note
 
We do our utmost to ensure our donation lists are kept as up to date as possible, but they are subject to change at short notice depending on recent donations and stock levels. We are very happy to assist you at the donation door, or you can call or email. Thank you for your understanding.
