I think it's wrong to blame this on the general public when even if you do sort and try to recycle, many companies will just throw it in a landfill with normal trash anyway. It is not a lack of motivation for most people, it is a lack of options.

Hands down probably one of the best videos on your channel. This makes too much sense. I actually wouldn't mind working in a place like that refurbishing old items like electronics and furniture.
A large portion of my furniture is stuff I salvaged from my apartment complex's trash area when neighbors move. I passed on a lot of stuff I didn't have the time to refurbish but it's shocking how much furniture was perfect and just needed to be cleaned. I've passed on a lot just because I don't need more.

I bet Ikea could almost do a “I would like a used but like new” furniture option like when you purchase from a school bookstore? Maybe, they need to post them on the Ikea website in order to get more eyes on them?
It's a great idea but I do know it would be too expensive and too unreliable for the customer to put into to system.

Goodwill are NOT a charity, they greatly benefit from the assumption they are, which is created by their name and being registered a non profit, in reality they just abuse the non profit registration and underpay their staff
I recently tried to get rid of a bunch of stuff I didn't need when I was moving. A huge truck full of stuff ranging from expensive power tools to clothes, toys and furniture. I drove around to 7 different goodwill's and none of them would take it. It really dissuaded me from donating again. Some goodwill's did accept a couple of items but most didn't even take one.
It's basically a flea market? Edit: yes if your in America it's just their version of a flea market...so basically more efficient and normal people shop there that's difference
you'd be amazed by what people will throw out. My partner found a new plasma tv at the dump, did one google search on the model and the first thing that came up was how to fix it.

This is actually a big thing rn bc companies dont want this mentality to come back, since they lose money. Check out Louis Rossman here on youtube. Also i believe some legislation went through recently on the EU abt this, regarding standardizing phone manufacturing so they're made easier to repair
Same in Finland they have wonderful recycling centers and shops I got some amazing stuff and the original pricetags are mind-blowing designer items aswell you have to hunt stuff
Great way to save going to landfill sadly here in the uk the charity shops are killing this kind of thing by over pricing for secondhand items making it not much cheaper than buying new
The over pricing i think is cause some or many thrift places are trying be like ebay so any used stuff they try sel for more to profit from it anytime. same happen in the states that some thrift have gone ebay ways to make extra to pay workers or fill pockets anytime. so gotta debate if what u see is really worth the price at time. the value of anything is what we give and willing to pay for it anytime.
Etsy is a great place to sell used or recycled. I’ve sold $6,000 in 2020 and it was all vintage or antiques with pre-used packaging. I’m a small business too.
I like the stores that have used stuff, it is a hassle to have search for individual items on craiglist and then drive all over for each one. Where I live people have money, so a lot of them wouldn't consider shopping at a place like this, so the stores that have tried to make have unfortunately closed down. I was able to buy everything for my place at a huge discount, all in new condition, all good quality and saved myself thousands of dollars (kitchen table/chairs, leather recliner/ottoman, full bedroom set, cherry wood office desk/high end office chair, lamps, TV Set/DVD player, computer/monitor, book cases, work area table/chair/tools/garden equipment, etc.. The other reason is most of the furniture stores that sell new items, make you wait weeks/sometimes months to deliver. I just paid the store owner selling used items cash and they delivered everything the next day. The only item I purchased new was my bed/mattress.
This is all well and good and I hope this spreads to more places. Much of modern economy is involved in production (making stuff) for consumption. But until the "creation economy" is counter-balanced by the "breakdown economy" (turning already created stuff into raw materials) we are living on borrowed times.
To be honest, some of old stuff work so much better than the one company make these day.. My mom used to have a old vintage Singer sewing machine and she missed it ever since when she came to U.S.. She always complain that nothing could be useful like her old one, and my family still on hunt to get her another but it so hard to get..
I still have a vintage PFAFF sewing machine, it was my mother's and it's worked perfectly for 30 years! I remember borrowing a neighbor's new sewing machine once when I was waiting on a new belt for mine, it felt so cheap and flimsy compared to mine...
I'm actually trying to figure out how to do this here in America. Right now I am the only person trying to organize everything and have so many new ideas I want to start doing.
We do need this in the United States... Our flea markets are just ridiculous on prices. Most are just shops of things you order online but they have ordered it and place it in their rented space. PLEASE BRING IT TO TEXAS (LUBBOCK)!! We are a college town and this would be so appreciated.
A revolutionary concept : Creating legislation that both rewards (with grants or tax breaks) or punishes (with regulations in place and increased penalties and fees) corporations that manufacture products that contribute to waste(fed by data analytics) more than other products- rewarding them for creating detailed plans for recycling their products and helping them and others to implement those plans- or punishing those corps that do nothing to help keep waste down or even make the problem worse. America has so much talent , its a shame more effort isnt put towards finding solutions that all sides - the corporations and the environmentalists included- can live with. Same with the homeless problem.
I would love to have a mall of used goods. There would be so much more variety and every time you went there would be different stuff. And there would be much less consumer guilt about purchases. Generally when I'm replacing something that is in fair or better condition I'll give it away on Craigslist. But this is such a hassle since you have to reply to many messages, arrange a time for pickup, deal with flaky people not showing up or showing up late. For smaller items (clothing, books, etc) I often put them aside and a couple of times a year I'll donate whatever is there to a local thift store. For larger items I'm stuck with Craigslist since I don't own a truck. I'm guessing this thrift mall doesn't do pickups either though.
This is incredible. The country in general is incredible. Like only 1% only goes to the landfill? That's amazing! How I wish it's like this in other parts of the world too. That would be great if ever :)
I WISH this would take off in FULL force in the United States! Our recycling is kinda a joke really compared to the scale at which Sweden even organizes their trash to go to in 7 different colored bags and we can’t even get people to stop and recycle basic items or to “care” enough to stop being LAZY! Sigh 😔
I'd shop there, in a heartbeat. Matter of fact My favorite 2nd hand store is called '(my city) Recyclers & Use it again store.' I ALWAYS Find something!!
I am surprised they don't get paid for it. They really should. The private sector won't start paying for these services until they start to run out of raw materials. But by then it will be too late. The governments need to provide a financial incentive to bolster this sort of thing so that it runs alongside the production economy, before we get to an event horizon of finite raw materials.
I work for a high end recycling company in the U.S. I have seen brand new stuff sent to be destroyed. This includes computers. LED lamps, and anything with a lithium ion batteries. Now the way I see it, the greed has taken over. They won't give it away, they will have it destroyed to keep the prices up.
In Malta when an item goes to a rycling centre, no one can touch it anymore, not even if one wants to pay for the thrown away item. Same goes for other european countries.
Why can't Australia do this??? I often doubt that much of my recycling will ever actually get recycled at all. Not much ingenuity. There's one lady, doing an initiative in how to repurpose items from landfill into new furnishings/cladding for homes. It's unfortunate that we can't work with other countries like Sweden to replicate what's working and adapt it.
Australia has similar things called Green sheds or trash and treasure style shop fronts at most tips. Not a mall exactly but they sell items people have taken to the tip.
For decades we have known that reusing and recycling our unwanted goods can save so much energy and raw resource. This will make the current young generation so pissed at us for being so absent minded when they will be mining the old dumps for resources.
It’s not just the market, it’s the culture in the general public’s mind that cares about recycling.

We need such on stop mall places everywhere in the world.
I work for a high end recycling company in the U.S. I have seen brand new stuff sent to be destroyed. This includes computers. LED lamps, and anything with a lithium ion batteries. Now the way I see it, the greed has taken over. They won't give it away, they will have it destroyed to keep the prices up.
In Malta when an item goes to a rycling centre, no one can touch it anymore, not even if one wants to pay for the thrown away item. Same goes for other european countries.
That's great IKEA 👌🏼🔥

Why can't Australia do this??? I often doubt that much of my recycling will ever actually get recycled at all. Not much ingenuity. There's one lady, doing an initiative in how to repurpose items from landfill into new furnishings/cladding for homes. It's unfortunate that we can't work with other countries like Sweden to replicate what's working and adapt it.
its awesome, wish it could be more on other places.
Australia has similar things called Green sheds or trash and treasure style shop fronts at most tips. Not a mall exactly but they sell items people have taken to the tip.
Why can America be like Sweden, that country's recycling program is perfect.
For decades we have known that reusing and recycling our unwanted goods can save so much energy and raw resource. This will make the current young generation so pissed at us for being so absent minded when they will be mining the old dumps for resources.
Places like these help me to cosplay, I wish I had more around me
Sofia's accent is so charming.
