As the least polluting way of dealing with waste, Harrogate Borough Council support Re-use schemes wherever possible.
If you have something that you no longer want you can take it to one of the local charity shops or visit one of the following websites to find a good home for things that would otherwise go to landfill.

For nearly new baby and children's clothes, toys, prams and equipment at much reduced prices, the Harrogate, Wetherby & Ripon branch of the NCT hold nearly new sales throughout the year. Check their website for details at www.nctharrogate.org.uk or email info@nctharrogate.org.uk
Unwanted cars
If you have an old car that you no longer require, you could consider donating it to giveacar. A donation, equivalent to the scrap value of the car, is made to a charity of your choice. To find out more about this scheme, see the www.giveacar.co.uk website.
