Abstract

The research identifies the benefits of understanding consumer decisions at the point of discarding household items and suggests strategies to encourage the necessary behaviour change in order to improve the operation of existing reuse and repair ventures. Increased understanding could also inform future policies aimed at increasing the incidence of reuse and repair and assist local authorities, industry and third sector organisations in their implementation.
