Looking to get rid of things you no longer need/use? Don't trash it - Bring it to the Swap Shop!
A free and local exchange where students, faculty, and staff can pass on things they no longer need/want, in exchange for something they do need/want.
Participants do not need to bring anything in order to take away goods, and vice versa.
By reusing things we cut down on the amount of waste that goes into landfills and reduces the number of resources that we use in manufacturing new products.
And it saves money!
*Bring a reusable bag to pick up items*
5-item drop limit - unlimited item pick-up
Anything left after 2:00pm will be donated to a local donation center
