Jane At present LBH&F sell or recycle our stock ourselves. We are not using any 3rd party businesses to do this for us. We make significant income from sale of ex stock & combine this sometimes with and offer e.g. pay £2.00 for eco bag & fill with as much stock (books not A/V) as you like. We also donate some of our stock to community groups / homeless people projects.

Could you help by letting me know who, if anyone, you use for this? Just the company name would be helpful, but if you have any other information such as geographical coverage or an opinion on the service we would be grateful. We are also interested to find out if any colleagues are successfully selling material on e-bay for example?
