“Seeking Alternatives to Landfill”
Recycle Scotland specialise in the total recycling of unwanted office furniture, offering a clear identifiable alternative to landfill. We achieve this by re-using and recycling through charities, social enterprises and small businesses.
Recycle Scotland was initiated as a project by Edinburgh University Settlement (EUS) with seed corn funding from The Royal Bank of Scotland Group.
EUS is a registered charity enhancing the public provision for individuals disadvantaged through disability or circumstance.
Recycle Scotland’s main aim is to use unwanted office furniture to benefit local communities, social enterprises, small businesses and charities.
Recycle Scotland offer this facility to everyone, maximising office furniture re-use and helping to eliminate the quantity going to landfill.
To date Recycle Scotland have prevented over 3000 tonnes from going to landfill.
Recycle Scotland have grown in this ethos to provide a sound business which is ethically bound to protect our environment. While also reducing the operating costs to charities, helping to train people from disadvantaged groups and supporting good causes.
