Scrapstore donations

On this page we list items that we are seeking for the Scrapstore. We ask that all items are of a reusable condition, clean and dry.

We do not accept clothes or books: both of these can be recycled at Townmead Road Reuse and Recycling Centre.

We cannot accept polystyrene packaging - it cannot be recycled in the borough. If you have something you would like to donate that is not on the list please contact us.

Donations can be taken to Townmead Road Reuse and Recycling Centre or brought direct to the scrapstore at The Central Depot, Langhorn Drive, Twickenham (when visiting The Central Depot please make an appointment first because it is not a public access site). Also contact us if you require a collection.
