I’m really proud and excited that our customers have transferred a whopping £1.9million worth of furniture and equipment into charities up and down the land.
Yes they have given furniture and equipment to the value of £1.9 million to charities and not for profits.
Large organisations often have surplus resources that they no longer need but are still in good condition and Warp It makes it easy to rehome them internally or to other organisations.
The unloved and unused resources which range from office furniture and electrical equipment to printer cartridges, stationery and anything else that isn’t needed, can either be swapped or donated to charities.

I would like to thank each and every one of our Warp It customers who, by donating their stuff have helped us reach this momentous milestone. One of our objectives since we launched the company in 2011 has been to help support charitable activities, and Warp It helps corporates redistribute assets in a safe and legal manner.
I launched Warp It after spotting an opportunity to find a home for hundreds of relatively new office chairs that had been dumped into a skip.
My ambition is to make the reuse of items within organisations mainstream. I want to make reuse as easy as buying from Amazon. Warp It should be the first port of call for organisations when buying new if they want to save on purchase costs. Or who have anything that can be reused by charities. We allow corporates to offer free stuff, office furniture to charity in a legal and safe way.
Warp It is making the world a better and more sustainable place, improving resilience, reducing procurement costs and keeping products out of skips. It's a powerful online system and it works.
