The Green Connect Op Shop and Recycling Hub in Unanderra is a thriving Op Shop where we focus equally on providing affordable clothes and household items for the general public and diverting waste from landfill. Our new Op-shop at the UOW Campus will have the same focus – giving items a second life, encouraging recycling and minimising waste to landfill. In addition to selling secondhand items our op shops are hubs for sustainability and waste related information. They are inclusive and safe spaces for everyone regardless of background and identity. Op shop opening hours: Unanderra Mon - Fri 9am-4.30pm / Sat 10am-3pm UOW - Mon - Fri 10am-3pm (only during Uni semesters)
