The Rubbish Reality

So picture this: You’ve just had the best weekend with your mates at a festival. Amazing music, great vibes and awesome memories. Then the final morning arrives. You’re feeling a bit rough and facing a soggy, muddy tent that quite frankly you can’t face taking home and dealing with.

Sound familiar? You (and many others) are not alone.

Every year an estimated 250,000 festival-goers leave their tents behind, turning fields into temporary tent graveyards.

Insane right?! But it’s not hard to see why. Owning a tent means dragging it home, drying it out and storing it for eternity. Even for the tents that are taken home, how many people actually use them again? A lot of tents end up forgotten about in storage before being chucked in the bin.

Selling it afterwards seems like the sensible option, but in reality you’re competing with thousands of other people offloading tents for next to nothing. All the while yours just sits there, in the way, taking up space.

Renting sounds like the smart move, but most tent rental companies treat mud like it’s a war crime and have hefty upfront deposits to cover things like cleaning. And if you’re unlucky enough to have someone else damage it, you usually get charged the full cost of the tent on top of your deposit!

Because of the lack of affordable alternatives, people on a budget and tight on storage space will buy the cheapest tent they can find, use it once and walk away.

The thing is, these abandoned tents don’t magically disappear. Despite what many people think or hope, most of these tents end up in landfill. Event organisers and charities try their best to recycle or find a use for them, but let’s face it, when you have a quarter of a million tents to deal with, it’s just not realistic with the resources available. Add to the fact that tents are made mostly of mixed synthetic materials that cannot be easily processed for recycling, the end result?

A massive waste problem every year.

But There’s Got to Be a Better Way, Right?

And that’s where Earthrise Camping steps up.

What if you could rock up to any festival or campsite with zero tent stress? No worrying about whether your bargain £50 tent is going to keep you dry at the first sign of proper British weather. No stress about where to store it, no guilt about what happens after the fun is over and no worry over deposit small print.

Earthrise Camping is the UK’s only fully circular tent hire taking donations and delivering tents nationwide.

We acquire quality, unwanted second-hand tents to keep them out of landfill, prep them for the great outdoors again and then deliver across the UK. Because of this, our deposit scheme is a flat £20, with no further charges above this if the tent gets wrecked. It’s a system that means we can offer budget-friendly tent hire to campers who’d rather spend their cash on pints than tent storage.

We’re not trying to lecture you about the environment (we all have enough on our plates). But, we’re proud to have built a ridiculously simple & cheap solution that happens to be better for your weekend, your wallet and the planet!
