As SCARF operates from the City of Wolverhampton College we will reopen for sales and collections as soon as the college deems this acceptable and that we are able to ensure that our individual practices can meet the coronavirus guidelines too. We accept donations and business waste from a multitude of different suppliers and of course for a small venture as our own this comes with additional implications, which we are endeavouring to overcome.
We apologise for any inconvenience the loss of our service has provided and really do hope that we can be up and running to see you soon.
Please keep checking back here to find the status of SCARF.
SCARF is a not for profit social enterprise business, based in Wolverhampton. We are focused on reducing the carbon footprint of local businesses and helping the environment by reusing surplus materials from businesses as resources for art, education and play.

We need your rubbish! Okay, not all of your rubbish but a lot of those items that it just seems a shame to throw away and see end up in landfill.
If your business or company has waste materials or paint, then we may be able to help you by you helping us!
