We have a lot of stationery items, including some stackable in-trays, a lot of ring binders/folders (about 30, mostly cardboard ones but a few are plastic) - used but nothing a sticker on the spine won't hide, excess envelopes, a lot of manilla folders in a variety of colours (these have been written on but labels could cover them or as they are card, they could be used to make things), plastic wallets, pen holders, staplers, hole punches, bulldog clips, scissors. Some items are new or near new but some are obviously older with writing on them so if that doesn't bother you at all. I'm sure there are other bits and pieces I will find when clearing it all out. We are based in central London and are happy for someone to collect it, or we could make arrangement for it all to be sent depending on location. We are looking at giving it all away to a charity that can either sell it on to make money for their charity or a charity that perhaps gives it to schools overseas, or even a school here that could make use of it. If you are a charity or a school that would like to take any of this off our hands, please email me on andi.wallace@carpathianam.com Many thanks, Andi Hi,

It's hard to believe how the saying "one man's trash is another man's treasure" rings so true in these situations. Thanks for the directory listings. Here's a tip: If you have a large amount of scrap and is considering to get a private company to haul your junk away, make sure you call and ask them what they do with the materials that they collect! Believe it or not, most of them simply take your stuff and throw it away at the dumpsters without any thought whatsoever that the less fortunate could make good use of it.
