Keeping goods moving and building careers
At Good Sammy, our warehouse is more than just a place where donations are processed. It is a busy hub where people connect, learn and work together to make things happen.
From the moment items arrive through our extensive truck fleet to the moment they are sold, recycled or repaired, our team keeps goods moving, reduces landfill and supports opportunities for people with disability.
Within our connected warehouse precinct, people take on a wide range of hands-on roles across the warehouse, Factory Outlet and Containers for Change depot. From driving forklifts and sorting donations to testing electronics, processing recyclables and helping customers, there are opportunities to learn new skills, try different jobs and build confidence every day.
Our warehouse handles more than six million kilos of goods each year, keeping clothing, furniture, books, electronics and more in circulation. Customers visit the Factory Outlet to buy pre-loved items by the kilo, community members drop off containers for refund, and volunteer groups join us to lend a hand.
Every visit and every transaction supports training, employment and environmental action. The warehouse is good for the planet and good for people.
