THE PEOPLE'S DEPOT

A photo of the tops of several cans representing the bottle redemption center The People's Depot work as canners.

The People's Depot is Ground Score's beverage redemption center operated for canners, by canners. The People's Depot generates formal, benefitted jobs for workers, serves hundreds of canners a week in the Central Eastside, and prevents the emission of hundreds of tonnes of CO2 equivalent (greenhouse gases) a year.

Ground Score's Reuse Team offers a Sewing Program and a Carpentry Program for low-barrier learning in the recovery, reuse and repair of textiles, furniture, scrap wood, and non-recyclable plastics. Materials come from GSA’s waste collection routes and community partners. This program is fundraising towards a fully-functioning eco-production studio.
