Re-use shop: "Revive"

We have a shop at Brighouse HWRC for the resale of good quality unwanted items. These can be donated at all household waste recycling centres:

Items we can reuse:

• Furniture, homeware, clothing, bric-a-brac, sports equipment, tools and garden equipment.
• Stuffed furniture, such as sofas, mattresses, armchairs and cushions. These must have fire labels attached, dated from 1988 or later, whether indoor or outdoor furniture.
• Children's toys that display the CE mark on the toy or its packaging. It must show the manufacturer declares their product complies with European health, safety and environmental legislation.

Items we cannot re-use:

• Due to issues with PAT testing and legal responsibilities around this, no electrical items can be sold. These should be put in the skip for electricals at the HWRC. Small electrical items like hairdryers, toasters and kettles can be recycled. Put these in your black box and they can be collected with your other recycling.
• Safety equipment such as bike helmets, children's car seats, life jackets cannot be sold from Revive.

Every item for sale would have gone to waste via one of Calderdale's Household Waste Recycling Centres. This means that each item bought contributes to a greener Calderdale.

All items will be checked to make sure they are fit for purpose.

Shop opening times and days

• Open: Tuesday to Saturday only, at the same time as the HWRC.
• Closed: 30 minutes before the HWRC closes, to cash up and shut the till down.

Note: Card Payments only, no cash can be accepted.

Please be aware that pedestrians are not allowed on site to gain access to the re-use shop. You must park in the designated car park for the shop.
