In the charity's own words
Scrapbox runs a reclaimed resources centre, dedicated to collecting, processing and redistributing clean, re-usable waste materials from businesses and individuals which still have a useful purpose in art, craft and home projects. We do this through selling the resources to our Members, who pay a small fee to join and who benefit from low cost, reclaimed materials, saved mainly from landfill.
