Join us for the 2026 spring swap series with new swaps at new locations on new dates. Attendees will bring items to give away and/or shop for items to take home. Swap events are a great opportunity to rehome items and reduce waste in our community. These events are free and open to everyone. No items may be sold; everything must be given and taken freely. Event staff reserve the right to refuse any items.

Note: We recommend that all attendees presort their items into like categories before the event. Attendees will be expected to sort and set their items on the designated tables. 

*A limit of 3 boxes of items may be brought to each swap event.

If you bring items to share: 

1. Stop at the check-in table 
2. Have items weighed by city staff 
3. Set your allowed items on the designated tables 
4. Return any items not allowed to your vehicle 
5. Stay and 'shop' or leave at your leisure 

If you do not bring items to share: 

1. Stop at the check-in table to grab a bag if you'd like 
2. Start 'shopping' and leave at your leisure
