Tool Collector

Tools with a Mission (TWAM)

Members of the public will contact you via email or phone. We will give you a TWAM 

email that goes on our website and will only give out your phone number to people who 

ring our office (because they may not use email). You can then arrange to either pick the tools 

up from them or have them dropped off at your house, whichever you prefer.

You will then need to store them until the TWAM van comes to you to collect them. This can either be on a rota basis or when you ring your named Van Manager to ask for a collection. Many collectors also promote themselves in local magazines and notice boards.

What skills do I need?

Tool Collectorss need to be enthusiastic about what we do and the transforming power of tools.

Many people donating tools do so following bereavement, so we need sensitive people willing to stop and talk 

rather than rush off. In other words, kind and friendly people!

Legally we will also need to check you have adequate motor insurance and your car has an MOT.
