About the Business
Welcome to Windarring Recycled Op Shop, located at 1 Fir Street, Golden Square, Australia. As an establishment and point of interest, our store offers a unique shopping experience filled with vintage and handmade goods. We are proud to be a part of Windarring's Vintage Market shop, where you can find a wide range of one-of-a-kind items.
At Windarring Recycled Op Shop, we not only provide a treasure trove of vintage items, but we also support our local community and our supported employees. By shopping with us, you are contributing to a meaningful cause. This webpage will also give you a glimpse into the behind-the-scenes journey of our employees working at the vintage market, sharing their ADE stories and micro-businesses.
Forming partnerships is at the core of what we do. We believe in creating positive change by raising awareness about the environmental impacts of overconsumption. As we continue to grow and evolve, our stakeholders play a crucial role in our strategy to provide more employment opportunities for people with disabilities. We strive to deliver positive benefits for Windarring and the community as a whole.
Our main collection hub for recycling is located at the Windarring site on Rohs Road in Bendigo. Collection bins are conveniently placed across Bendigo, Castlemaine, and Kyneton. Our dedicated employees with disabilities sort the clothes and bric-a-brac that are collected, which are then sold to our partner in Melbourne, Southern Cross Recycling. Through this process, our employees gain valuable skills, from driving vehicles to using pallet jacks and packing items for sale.
When you shop at Windarring Recycled Op Shop, all proceeds go towards supporting our wonderful programs. We are committed to empowering people with disabilities and helping them through the transition process, providing the necessary supports for them to live their lives to the fullest. Whether it's learning life skills, gaining independence, getting involved in the community, training for a job, or improving health and well-being, Windarring is here to support every step of the way.
We are excited to introduce you to our fabulous Crafty Bag Lady, Sue! Sue has her very own micro-business, creating upcycled and re-purposed bags made from old chook feeder bags. Her creativity and talent shine through in each unique piece.
In addition to our Golden Square location, we also have the Bendigo Windarring Emporium/Recycle Shop located at 1 Fir St Golden Square (Old YCW clubrooms) and the Castlemaine Emporium at 317 Barker Street, Castlemaine. Our Retail Store is open five days a week, Monday through Friday, from 10:00am to 2:00pm.
We invite you to read Joe's incredible success story, showcasing his journey and involvement with the Windarring Recycled Store. It is a testament to the positive impact we strive to make on individuals' lives.
Finally, Windarring acknowledges and pays respect to the Dja Dja Wurrung and Wurundjeri peoples, the first inhabitants of the area and the traditional custodians of the lands where we live, learn, and work. We honor and respect the Elders past, present, and emerging.
Thank you for visiting Windarring Recycled Op Shop, where you can find unique vintage items while supporting a great cause. We look forward to helping you discover your next beloved treasure!
