La Glanerie is a reintegration structure supported by Toulouse Métropole. Its objective is twofold. On the one hand, it is a question of protecting the environment by recycling objects deposited on site or in a waste disposal centre, giving them a new life. On the other hand, it allows integration through a vocational training workshop. Every year, it organizes a "Make Recycling" event to raise public awareness of how to change the way people consume. Close to the Garonne canal, it has a 700 m² space where furniture and second-hand objects are displayed at very good prices. A very clever plan! Another smaller boutique is located in the city at 2, avenue de la Gloire.
