Remake gratefully receives donations of unwanted or surplus goods from within our community. We can accept donations either in store during opening hours (Thursday 10-6, Friday 10-4 and Saturday 10-4) or at our Reuse Container at Crieff Recycling Centre (open 7 days a week).
We wish that we could accept everything that our community has to offer us but unfortunately, we are limited on space, so are only able to accept the following items.
All donations must be clean and in good working condition. Remake reserves the right to refuse donations.

If you have an item which would need to be collected, then we will do our best to accommodate this. We rely on volunteers to undertake collections, so cannot guarantee that collection will always be possible. We can also undertake house clearances but will need plenty of advance notice to be able to organise volunteers to help with these.
If you have an item that needs collected or a house clearance to organise then please email mhairi@remakescotland.co.uk with the following information.
1. Your name and contact number
2. Your address
3. Photos of the items you have for collection
4. Approximate dimensions of your donation
5. Any deadlines associated with the collection
Please note that we can only collect items located within approximately ten miles of Remake and that we can only collect items from ground level.
We want to see our community keeping as much from landfill as possible. We have good partnerships with other local charity shops and community organisations and would recommend trying the following places if we can’t accept a donation.
Toys & children’s wear – Child after Child, Crieff High Street
Clothing & bric-a-brac – Cancer Research or Blythswood, (both Crieff High Street)
Books - Cancer Research, Blythswood or book exchange in Crieff Co-op
Large furniture – Strathearn Cares, Chest, Heart & Stroke, Perth or Salvation Army, Perth
IT & computer equipment – JAS Computers Crieff or Perth College WEEE Centre
Thank you so much for thinking of donating to Remake. We hope this has provided you with the information you need, but if you have any further questions, you can contact us on 01764 655733.
