The shop is so busy, stock is changing daily and I am amazed at the generosity of people. It is obvious there is a need for this service; people don’t want to throw away good reusable household items.

We test all the electrical items and each item comes with a warranty for peace of mind.
Trade & Donate offers discounts for people who are on a low income or benefits. Setting up home can be so very expensive, we help make this as economical as possible.

About us

Trade & Donate (The Recycling Shop) opened for business in August 2008 and business is growing. Our aim is to reduce the number of household items ending up in landfill sites and to help raise money for charity at the same time.

Managing Director, Mr. Antony Chipperfield believes we have a responsibility to make sure our unwanted goods do not go to waste. If you have unwanted furniture; electrical items; bric a brac; any household items that are in a useable condition – we can help. A free collection service is available and we can normally collect the same week, sometimes the same day. Those who have donated the items choose the charity to benefit from the resale.

Trade & Donate has a warehouse on The Regent Hall, Axminster and is open to the public from Mon-Fri 9am – 6pm and Saturday 10am – 5pm.

So it couldn’t be easier – if you have anything you don’t want, you think we can resell and you would like to donate to a charity at the same time, then give Trade & Donate a call.
