Making a donation to a RRA reuse shop
“We’re all in this together – working to reuse, recycle and upcycle.
At the same time we’re helping the community with reasonably priced goods.”
Kerin | Reviva Noosa
We love donations of quality items we can sell in our shops.
We work to keep waste out of landfill and to provide our customers with high quality goods that don’t cost the earth.
Our team is skilled in picking high quality goods and can spot sellable items from a mile away. Our experience shows us what our wonderful customers need and want from our shop.
So before you “dump” your stuff straight to landfill, stop at your local Reviva reuse shop. We can help you save money on landfill fees and give your items a new life!
