ReUse at Salford

The University of Salford is a member of WARP-it (Waste Action Reuse Portal), a redistribution network, which works in a similar way to Ebay or Freecycle but for organisations rather than individuals.

WARP-it makes it easy for departments to give away, loan or claim items unwanted by others within the organisation and beyond. Items which can be reused include furniture and stationery. 

If you are from a local organisation interested in receiving donated items, please get in touch: eps-sustainability@salford.ac.uk.
