Charity Re-use at Recycling Centres
(Orange Containers)
Our Charity Re-use service is available at all Suffolk Recycling Centres. Sites accept a wide range of clean, working, reusable items. Please donate these items in the orange Charity Re-use containers on site. You must book an appointment to drop off re-use items at any Suffolk Recycling Centre.
Donated items are sold in the two Charity Re-use shops located on Bury St Edmunds and Foxhall Recycling Centres. You can drop off donations and have a browse at both shops without making a Recycling Centre booking. Opening times, accepted donations lists, Charity information and more can be found here.
