The City of Vancouver has organized both a Pop-up Recycling & Free Swap Event taking place this Saturday at: King George Secondary School, 1755 Barclay St Vancouver, BC V6G 1K6
There are three ways to participate in the free swap:
(1) Swap it. Drop off items for others to choose from and then pick out new-to-you items dropped off by others.
(2) Donate it. Feel free to donate items without taking home anything new.
(3) Take it.
Nothing to donate? No problem! Everyone is welcome to take items home – there are plenty of great finds to go around. General guidelines: Items will be accepted from 10am-12:30pm. Size – each item will fit in a regular size reusable bag – think grocery bag. Condition - in clean, good working order. Quantity - bring 1-2 items, take as many as you like.
What to do when you arrive:
Step 1 - If you have them, check-in your donated items with the event organizers.
Step 2 - Browse the swap tables and select items you can use.
Step 3 - Check-out your selected items with event organizers.
