Why Should Your Council Work with Us?
Higher Recycling Rates: Diverting reusable goods from waste streams increases recycling performance. Each year we recycle/rehome over 10,000 tonnes of reusable goods in the UK.
- Community Engagement: Residents love the convenience of our doorstep collections and knowing that their items are going to be rehomed and reused.
- Environmental Impact: By reusing and recycling, we help councils cut carbon emissions and conserve resources by not having to produce more of what is already available. All our collection tonnages are reported back to the relevant Local Authorities via quarterly WDF Reporting with Final Destination reports. Our drivers are given a route and know exactly where to go. No need to troll neighbourhoods look for kerbside bags. We encourage households to reuse their own bags and boxes to pack their unwanted goods. All packaging is recycled.
- Cost-Effective: Our service integrates seamlessly with council waste management and their other partners. We complement existing services with another solution to waste management that is free to Local Authorities.
- Charity: We support several charities and have paid over £400,000 in the past 2 years. We also support charities who need physical donations such as animal shelters, women and children’s shelters and other local hubs.
- Convenience: Households can choose a date of their choice for their collections. Reminders are sent via email and an UpToDate tracking link is sent the evening before the collection date. Providing our van’s location and ETA. Our vans are signed, and our drivers wear uniforms with identification.
- Accreditation: We are members of TRUST, Fund Raising Regulator, and the Charity Retail Association. Partners with LARAC, WRAP and signatories to TEXTILES 2030.

Trevor Kennett, Head of Direct Services at Sevenoaks District Council, commented,
We partnered with Anglo because our residents were complaining about rogue cold calling visit trying to collect clothes. This generated complaints and uncertainty in our communities, however working with Anglo has proved to alley those fears. We now only receive positive comments from residents who like the professional booking service and all of the good causes that Anglo support. I would recommend Anglo as a local authority partner without hesitation, as it has been an amazing success for our residents.
