Revive re-use shop

The shop opening and closing times are the same as the site opening times, however it is closed between 11am to 11:30am and 1pm to 1:30pm.

Revive reuse shops sell pre-owned items for the home and garden, reducing waste and supporting local charities.

By donating and shopping at the Revive re-use shops you will be helping to:

• Reduce waste and the associated disposal costs.
• Maintain essential services within Surrey County Council as revenue raised in the shops is used to offset the running costs of the CRCs.
• Raise money for local charities (10% of net profit is donated to charity).
