Become a Hot Point
A Hot Point is somewhere people can bring things all year round — a masjid, a school, a lobby, a shop. You collect; we handle the container, the signage and the pickups.
Why places do it
It gives your community somewhere to take things without a special trip, and it makes your building the place people associate with doing something useful. It costs you a corner of floor space and a few minutes a week.
Four ways to run one
- A public drop-off point
- Anyone can come in and leave something. Best for places people already visit.
- A staffed collection point
- Your team takes donations at a desk or counter during opening hours.
- An unstaffed container
- A secure container in a lobby or car park that we empty on a schedule.
- A private collection point
- Members, residents, employees or students only.

We look at every application properly — location, access and how busy you are all change what makes sense.
