Charity shops receive donations that cannot be sold: stained upholstery, mattresses, broken electricals and split bags left at the door overnight. Churches and halls carry decades of stored furniture, old pews, kitchen units and grounds waste that nobody has budget to move.
We price these jobs by the load, take the volume that is actually there, and give trustees a written trail. Where anything is still usable we route it to reuse rather than disposal, so the donation is not wasted twice.
The problems charities & churches bring us
Unsellable donations arriving faster than they can be sorted
Donation drops left outside are commercial waste once the shop takes possession. Regular collections stop the back room filling and keep the fire escape clear.
Upholstery and mattresses under POPs rules
Donated sofas, armchairs and mattresses that fail resale cannot be recycled — POPs rules require separate incineration, which is why they cannot simply go in a bin bag.
Listed buildings and delicate access
Narrow vestry doors, gravel paths, stone floors and monuments all limit how a load can be carried out. We board routes and hand-carry rather than trolley where the building demands it.
Tight, scrutinised budgets
Trustees need a fixed number before approving spend. We quote from photos, confirm the price in writing and do not add extras on the day.
