Question de Culture is a nonprofit organization under the French Law of 1901.
The Recyclerie Bergeracoise aims to conserve our resources and reduce waste by extending the lifespan and useful life of products.
Open since May 30, 2016, the Recyclerie collects reusable items, restores them or makes minor repairs, and resells them at affordable prices in our store
(appliances, furniture and tableware, baby gear, bicycles, tools, clothing, books and DVDs, knickknacks, computers…).
Once they arrive at our workshops, the items we receive are sorted; we make minor repairs as needed and then place them in our store at affordable prices so that as many people as possible can easily furnish their homes and acquire the items they need.
We have three sales areas.
These spaces are open during the following hours:
- Monday 2:00 p.m. – 5:00 p.m.
- Tuesday 2:00 p.m. – 5:00 p.m.
- Wednesday 2:00 p.m. – 5:00 p.m.
- Friday 2:00 p.m. – 5:00 p.m.
- Saturday 9 a.m. – 12 p.m. / 2 p.m. – 5 p.m.
