Zero Waste Scotland has launched a new initiative encouraging organisations to take action and reduce litter. The initiative is open to any organisation in Scotland that wants to demonstrate their commitment to the environment and their community.To take part, just download and complete the litter prevention action plan form and send to Zero Waste Scotland.

Litter prevention - action plans to change behaviours We are rolling out a new litter and flytipping prevention initiative across Scotland.

Sunshine, Rain or Snow (hopefully more sunshine!) we will accept your unwanted household items. Come find us on Piper Street, DD4 0NT.

Unwanted furniture and other household items which can be
repaired can also be donated for re-use at the Re-Use Hub at
Baldovie Recycling Centre.

The Baldovie Community Re-use Hub is a joint business partnership between Dundee City Council, Dundee Social Enterprise Network and two local Social Enterprises, Transform and Tayside Reusers, who collect donated items at the Hub which would have previously been treated as waste, then restore and redistribute
them to the local community. The Hub was jointly funded by Dundee City Council and grants from Zero Waste Scotland and Big Lottery.

This initiative ensures that items which were previously incinerated or landfilled are now given a new lease of life and are of benefit to the local community. A targeted communications strategy is raising awareness of the value of re-use, resulting in a monthly increase in items donated and a reduction in fly- tipping.

Another benefit of the project is that the third sector partners engage with volunteers, who learn new skills and increase their prospects of employment, by testing and repairing items received at the hub.

Still got left over items from your spring cleaning? Why not donate them to the Baldovie Re-Use Hub?

Our partner organisations, Tayside ReUsers, Transform Community Development and we do our best to ensure they make it to the right people.

In the last month alone, over 800 household items and furniture have been diverted from the landfill, since the its opening the hub has received a total of 13,403 items!

We're open 7 days a week to not miss out on your donations!
