After collection
Where Do Our Donated Toys Go To?
Your toy donations are brought to our warehouse and distributed to locations around the world, such as Ukraine and West Africa, where they’re sold at second-hand markets.
This makes toys affordable and accessible to families who can’t buy them brand new. We believe every family has the right to affordable toys – they’re a vital part of a child’s learning and development.

What Our Customers Say About Our Donation Collection Service
★★★★★
This is the 3rd time I’ve used Anglo Doorstep and each time has been a brilliant service. The drivers are punctual and friendly, I wouldn’t use anyone else. Also, I really like being given the choice of charity that I would like money raised to go to!

★★★★★
First time using the service after a recommendation on Facebook. Received the tracking information, and our donations were collected exactly when we were told they would be. Great service, would highly recommend and wouldn’t hesitate to use again.
Lauren
★★★★★
Such a great initiative and service. I normally go to my local charity shop but they could not take any more items. This service was a door collection and fully trackable service, so I knew when the drive would arrive. Very friendly driver came and collected lots of toys and clothes. Excellent service will be using from now on.
