Reuses is a directory for reuse, repair, recycling, waste reduction and related services.

Reuse is one of the simplest and most practical ways to reduce waste. Many things that are thrown away still have value, either for their original purpose or for a different use. Reuses is being developed to help people find organisations, services and businesses that can keep useful items, materials and resources in circulation for longer.

The project is based on a simple idea: before something becomes waste, it may still be useful to someone else.

Reuses aims to publicise the companies, charities, community groups, repair services, recycling organisations, waste specialists and reuse networks that help make this possible. It is intended to become an information-first directory for people looking for practical ways to reuse, repair, donate, sell, collect, recycle or responsibly dispose of items.

The site is not only about recycling. Recycling is important, but reuse often preserves more value because the item, material or product continues to serve a purpose before being broken down or processed. Reuses therefore gives particular attention to services that help extend the life of useful things.

The project also fits naturally with Ah Ha Software’s wider directory and website-monitoring work. By linking to relevant organisations and recording their websites over time, Reuses can help create a clearer picture of the reuse and waste-reduction sector as it develops.
