Five simple steps from shelf to second life.
A streamlined process designed by librarians, for librarians — built to fit seamlessly into your existing workflows.
Create your weed list
Identify the books your organisation is removing from circulation through your standard weeding process.
Use your own boxes or bags
Re-use old boxes or bags as packaging — no new materials required, keeping the process low-waste from the start.
Pick and pack weeded books
Your team simply packs the weeded books into your re-used boxes or bags — no extra paperwork required.
Weekly, monthly or quarterly pickups
Choose a collection cadence that suits your operation. Every box is custom weighed on the day and the total pickup weight must be witnessed and signed off by a staff member at collection.
Spines guillotined, paper re-purposed
Book spines are guillotined off and the different paper types are separated and taken to dedicated facilities for re-purposing — diverting every component from landfill.
Transparent pricing. Verified reporting.
A straightforward, weight-based model with full documentation — designed to make sustainability reporting effortless.
Charged by weight
A small cost per kilogram of recycled material. The entire consignment is weighed on-site at pick-up, with a staff member to witness and sign off on the agreed weight.
No administration fee
There is no admin fee to participate — the only charge is the small per-kilogram cost of the recycled material itself.
Simple invoicing
Invoices are issued at the end of each month and are payable 30 days later. Clean, predictable, and easy to budget.
Annual certification
We provide annual certification verifying responsible recycling — ready for your sustainability and compliance reporting.
