Spring is here, and it's time for us all to cheer up!
Beat the credit crunch, make your money go further with affordable quality, and style.
About us
ARC is a charity that was set up to help low income families by providing quality low cost furniture and domestic appliances, providing a training facility for unemployed people and reducing waste and landfill.
While we enjoy generous support from Croydon Council and Citybridge Trust, we earn most of our income from the transport services that we provide to industry and local authorities.
Our aim is to be financially self sufficient, and to use our earned income for the benefit of society and the environment we all share.
Sales
The Kensington furniture includes quality beds in all sizes, and light mahogany cabinets that were built to last! Also brass lamps and medium size televisions, ideal for the kids room! Plus many different pieces that make a visit well worthwhile.
Our Worshops.
We have one of the best-equipped domestic appliance repair workshops in the country, and our skilled engineers refurbish washing machines, fridges and cookers to the highest standards. Here we make the most of the high number of excellent appliances that may otherwise have been scrapped, and return them to guaranteed full working order.
Furniture Donations
We are pleased to accept donations of individual items. Help us to ensure that good quality furniture is not scrapped, and goes to help someone in need. Soft furniture and bedding must conform to Fire Regulations and have a visible Fire Label. Please understand that we can only accept donations of furniture that is in demand by our clients. However, we can dispose of unusable furniture fo a small fee.
Appliance Donations
We acquire most of our stock for refurbishing from our Council Contracts. However, we will always welcome reasonable electric cookers, as they are in short supply
Collections Services
We provide a bulky waste collection and disposal service, to Householders, Councils, and Industry. Our staff are experienced, and our methods aim to comply with all regulations. We are fully Licenced Waste Carriers.
Volunteers
Volunteers are always needed at ARC. Our main current need is for people to assist on van collections and deliveries, and for Administration Assistants.
Training and Work Experience
Disabled people are able to gain Work Experience Training under a scheme we provide for Croydon Social Services in partnership with Mencap.
