From our store in Headington we supply paint, scrap materials and tools that we have sourced from businesses and rescued from the tip. The store is open from 11am to 4pm on Saturdays, Tuesdays and Thursdays. We can, subject to staff/volunteer availability, open at other times during the week, please phone for an appointment.

Waste Paint

Recent changes in legislation have made it more expensive for local authorities to dispose of waste paint. In order to avoid these increased costs many councils are now refusing to accept most waste paint at household waste recycling centres and tips. [So, what can you do with your waste paint?]

Swap Shop

Orinoco Swap Shops are held on the second Saturday of the month and run from 11am to 2pm. Bring along stuff you don't want and/or take away stuff you do. [more info] [download flier]
