SCRAP Creative Reuse

What is SCRAP?

SCRAP is a donation-based creative reuse store and donation center in Richmond, VA. Along with the ever-changing and diverse store items, SCRAP also provides a range of educational opportunities within the community. Our mission is to inspire creative reuse and environmentally sustainable behavior by providing educational programs and affordable materials to the community. We are a part of the SCRAP Creative Reuse network which has grassroots creative reuse centers across the country.

What you can find at SCRAP

All kinds of reused materials for arts and crafts—plus school, office, and party supplies. We also offer a small collection of new and necessary items, like glue and magnets. Our inventory changes constantly so you never know what you’re going to find! The hunt is part of the fun.

Why the prices are so low

With the help of your donations, we’ve diverted hundreds of tons of usable materials from the waste stream nationally. Because most of our inventory is donated by individuals and businesses, we can keep prices low—about 1/3 to 1/2 of the retail cost. Every penny spent in the store goes back into supporting SCRAP’s mission
