Brightening Up with Solar Power ☀️
Did you know that we’ve got solar panels soaking up the sun right on our roof?
We’re harnessing solar energy to power our operations and even sending some green energy back to the grid. This means we’re not just using sustainable energy; we’re sharing it with the local community!
Going Electric with Our Fleet ⚡
Two of our four vans are electric—yep, that’s right! We’re cruising around town and collecting reusable goods while leaving a lighter carbon footprint. When you see our electric vans, give us a wave, and know that we’re all about making every trip count for the planet!
Free Collections & Zero Waste Drop-off 🚚
Got unwanted items? We’ve got good news! We collect your reusable goods for **FREE**!
That’s right—no charge for decluttering your home and helping the planet at the same time. Plus, if you prefer to drop off, we’ve got donation containers at the Zero Waste Parks in Stranraer, Newton Stewart, Whithorn, Dalbeattie, and Castle Douglas. It’s never been easier to give your gently used items a second life!
REVOLVE Accredited—Quality You Can Trust ✔️
When you shop with us, you’re not just getting fabulous finds; you’re supporting a sustainable mission! We’re proud to be REVOLVE accredited, which means every item you buy meets high-quality standards to ensure safety and reliability.
And don’t worry about taking a chance—every electrical good is PAT tested and comes with a 30-day no-quibble return policy. We’ve got your back!
Behind the Scenes Tours 🏭
Curious about what happens to your donations?
We offer fun and informative tours of our facility for local schools and community groups! It’s a fantastic opportunity to see behind the scenes at the Community Reuse Shop, where your unwanted items get transformed into treasures that benefit the community. Learning about sustainability has never been this exciting!
Ready to join the fun and make a difference? Whether you’re donating, shopping, or just stopping by for a chat.
Let’s work together to create a more sustainable future for Stranraer—one piece of reused furniture at a time!
