High Desert Redistribution
Idaho nonprofit · 501(c)(3) in formation

Keeping good things out of the landfill — and in the hands of people who need them.

High Desert Redistribution (HDR) collects surplus, returned, and recyclable materials across eastern Idaho and redistributes them to individuals, charities, and community organizations — reducing waste and relieving need.

Our mission

Reuse first. Recycle the rest.

We divert usable goods and recyclable materials from the waste stream and put them back to good use in the community. Businesses and individuals give us surplus, overstock, returned, and recyclable items; we sort, store, and redistribute them to people in need, other charities, and community programs — and responsibly recycle what can't be reused.
