WarpIt reuse platform

Find, give away, or loan office furniture, lab equipment and other resources using WarpIt

WarpIt is an online marketplace to redistribute resources conveniently and legally within the University for free. It is designed to be easy to find spare items to reduce the need to spend on procurement. It also helps staff find new owners to their "stuff" to reduce the need to spend on waste disposal.

To use the marketplace, log in or create a WarpIt account.

To promote the marketplace within your department, use these resources and posters.

"We used WARPit for the first time following a recent major refit of one of our labs/office areas. We had no end of redundant office furniture to get rid of; as a result of us putting it on the WARPit site (which is very easy by the way) 100% of this furniture was reused throughout many different departments in the University. WARPit is an excellent idea." - Colin Weir, Facilities Team Leader at CRUK-CI

 

Other options for re-use
