We are working towards zero waste by re-using all our cardboard packing boxes - we spend time collecting surplus fruit boxes from local supermarkets - these materials are biodegradable breaking down within a moderate timespan.  They can be recycled and reused - no waste is generated and there is no plastic pollution.

Any items that are unsold from the auctions and are not being collected by our vendors we donate to local charities to avoid contributing to landfill as much as possible.
