Middlemore Lane Re-Use shop
Pre‑loved items at affordable prices
Our Re‑Use Shop sells a wide range of homeware, garden furniture, toys, sports equipment, books and more. Items are donated by residents, then cleaned and checked before being sold.
The aim of the shop is to reduce waste, reuse good-quality unwanted items and increase recycling. Many of the things donated would otherwise be thrown away.
What we sell
We stock a mix of pre‑loved and new items including homeware, garden furniture, toys, baby items, sports equipment, books, musical instruments and more.

How to donate
Bring items directly to the Re‑Use Shop. You can use the parking and unloading bays outside the shop. If you need assistance getting items from your car let us know and we can help.
If you're already visiting the HWRC to dispose of other waste, there is a donation drop‑off point on site. Let the HWRC staff know if your item is suitable for the Re‑Use Shop and they’ll direct you. We cannot accept items once they have been classed as 'waste' in the HWRC area.
Re-Use Shop donations are accepted at Fryers Road HWRC - ask a member of staff as you enter the site.
Buying from the Re‑Use Shop

Refunds are available within 14 days with a valid receipt. Online sales aren’t available yet.
If you need help getting your purchased items to your car, just ask a member of staff and we can help.
Future plans
Our services and offers will develop over time. We hope to include:
- Collection service for donating large items
- Collaboration with business who want to donate surplus stock. Contact us to discuss how you can donate items to our shop!
- Online sales
- Working with charities or community organisations to redistribute unsold items
- Community activities such as:

To begin with, all profits will support the shop. In the future, we aim to help fund local community projects or charities.
