Donate

What will we collect?

Crest’s team of drivers will collect unwanted furniture and household electrical items from the homes of residents across the Conwy county. Call us on 01492 596783 to find out more.

Is there a charge for the service?

We offer free collections of good quality items of furniture. Crest will visit your home to assess your unwanted item/s. If the item is deemed unsuitable for re-sale, we offer a recycling collection service for a fee. For more information on our recycling fees please call us.

Gift Aid

Gift Aid Logo

When you donate any items to Crest, we’ll ask you if you would like to sign up to Gift Aid.
Gift Aid is a Government scheme that allows us to claim additional money to top up the amount raised from the sale of your donated items. It doesn’t cost you a penny. But it does raise valuable funds that all go to help people-in-need in our local community. Find out more about Gift Aid here.

What about electricals?

Crest welcome donations of all kinds of electrical items – if we can reuse an electrical item rather than recycle it we’ll see that your pre-loved goods find a new home. We unfortunately have to charge to collect most household electrical items, and they vary.

Unfortunately, we no longer accept televisions.

Please call us for more details about the collection of other electrical items.

I live in a flat, can you still collect my unwanted items? 

Yes!

If the driver says the item is unsuitable for re-sale and I do not wish to have my item collected, do I have to pay a call out fee? 

No – you’re not obliged to pay if you don’t want to.

Where do you collect?

We collect along the coast inside of the Conwy County, call us for more details.

How long does it take to arrange a collection?

Please arrange your collection a week to a fortnight in advance. Please call 01492 596783 to arrange your collection.
