Welcome to Croydon ARC
Croydon Appliance Reuse Centre (ARC) is a charity that helps those on low incomes by providing affordable, quality furniture and domestic appliances. In addition, it provides on-the-job training for unemployed or disadvantaged people. All products sold are sourced from generous donations by members of the public and the commercial services we provide to local councils, schools, NHS trusts and commercial organisations.
By repairing appliances, PC's and furniture, and giving them a new lease of life, every year ARC is making a significant contribution to the environment by preventing tonnes of material ending up in landfill.
Whilst enjoying some financial support from Croydon Council and Citybridge Trust, ARC earns most of it's income from the waste and WEEE* services that it provides to a wide range of industries, local authorities and the general public.
