Take a Tour of Warp-It

Search for surplus items within your organisation, or in partner organisations.

Add items to your “Watch list” or “Wish list” to get priority notifications.

Search local regional or the whole of the network for surplus items.

Find free stuff for work

Reduce purchase costs and time by claiming items off other staff in your organisation or from other organisations, for free.

Reduces unnecessary purchasing

It is easy for purchasing staff to check if others across the network have a surplus item, before making a decision to buy new, or not.

Save on purchasing time

Claiming an item is just a case of matching up the two parties and completing the transaction. No need to go through the whole quote, purchase order and invoice process. This saves time and staff can concentrate on more important things than processing purchase paperwork!

Search & Filter

Search for items within the organisation, within partner organisations or right across the country. Filter searches for location or specific categories or items.

Wishlist

Add your own "Wish list" to get notified first if an item becomes available. When someone else adds the item, you receive an email and claim the item.

Watch list

If an item is being advertised but is not yet available, add it to your “Watch list” and get a notification when it becomes available. An item may not be available as it is still being advertised in the host organisation or it is still being used by the owner, but will become available in the future.

Notifications

Receive customisable notifications about daily or weekly additions and other activity on your organisations' and partners' account. Control the frequency of notifications.

It's good to see items going to good homes instead of to waste
Morag Fraser, Aberdeenshire Council

Ease of identifying useful item(s) and providing means to readily communicate with the person responsible for the listing. I and my office are very keen on reduce-reuse-recycle, and it's brilliant to be able to share things around our widely dispersed locations/departments in our university. I'd never have known about these items which we have been wishing for a lot just now but have no money for!
Anon, University of Cambridge

There is so much waste amongst organisations, I think this service is a great iniative to resolve the issue of dumping items that are no longer used.
It is great to be able to offer supplies to other departments that can make use of them and are grateful to receive.
Let's save the world one item at a time!
