Home
Moray Waste Busters has been a registered charity since November 2002. It was set up by David Munro and has developed into a well-established and popular feature of the local community, promoting awareness of the need for waste minimisation through a range of activities including an environmental education programme for schools (and other interested groups), a reuse/reclaim facility and a training placement scheme for school leavers who need help preparing for the world of work.

In the past six years we have run several projects to raise public awareness of the 3R's (Reduce-Reuse-Recycle) and other related environmental issues. These have included promotion of home composting, a feasibility study into the production of worm cast and workshops on growing willow, turning old car tyres into decorative garden planters and making craft items from plastic bags and other discarded materials. We have received funding support for these activities from a variety of sources including The Scottish Executive, Communities Scotland, Forward Scotland, SEPA and WRAP.

Our most successful venture to date has been "The Works" - a reuse/reclaim facility where members of the public can donate their unwanted household and garden items, thereby preventing the items from ending up in landfill. This has become a valuable resource for local people who can purchase good-quality items for a very small cost. We also offer a delivery and collection service at a very competitive rate.
