Welcome to the Stationery Reuse Centre!

The Stationery Reuse Centre is your go-to spot for free stationery, right here on campus. Whether you're prepping for exams, getting organised for the term, or just forgot a pen on the way to class — we've got you covered.

Everything in the centre is donated by students, staff, and the wider UNSW community to help reduce waste and support others. It's simple: take what you need, and give what you can. Every item reused is one less thing going to landfill!

How It Works

  • Drop by during our open hours and take what you need — no cost!
  • Items are generously donated by students, staff, and the community
  • Volunteers sort and display donations to keep the centre tidy and welcoming

Centre Opening Hours
