Waste less, live better.

When you buy new, the price tag doesn't reflect all the resources needed to produce, package, transport and eventually dispose of your purchases. So buy used, then sell or donate later for reuse. Not only will you save money, you'll help save the planet.

Our future isn't disposable.
So buy used.
You'll reduce
waste, and
save money.
See how.

Our Mission

To help protect the environment by encouraging residents to reduce waste by buying used items instead of new, and by keeping usable things out of the trash through donations, rental, repair and repurposing.
