The Arlington Reuse & Recycling Center’s Swap Shed is a free resource for our residents to share household items. As a volunteer-run sustainability initiative, we hope to encourage sharing and reuse, reduce consumption and waste, and connect neighbors across our community. Please help our volunteers by observing these shopping and donation guidelines. Shopping Guidelines
All donated items are for
personal use only, not for reselling. Donation Guidelines
All donated items must be fully functional and clean because we have no cleaning facility/service onsite. We will need to decline certain items when there is an overflow of similar items in stock. In-season items are accepted 1 month before the season. For example, we will start taking Christmas décor, skis, skates, sleds in November, and we will stop taking them once the season is over. We have no long-term storage space. Accepted Items
Kitchenware (dishes, utensils, pot & pans, bakeware, glassware, small appliances, cooking & baking gadgets, mixers, food processors)
Home Décor (artwork, lamps, small furniture)
Organization and Storage items
Games & Puzzles (complete, no missing pieces). Durable children's outdoor toys. Pet Supplies (cages, leashes, water bowls, carriers)
Books/CDs/Blu-rays/Video games/Vinyl (NO reference/text books, cassettes, or VCR tapes)
Thank you for your donation! Location: Reuse & Recycling Center at 33 Ryder Street. Rainy weather may cancel. Dog Policy: For visitor safety and comfort, dogs are not allowed at the Swap Shed or within the gates of the Reuse & Recycling Center at any time.
