Repair Café
Do you have something that isn’t working? Don’t toss, bring it to the Repair Café!
At our pop-up events (about 4 per year), our team of volunteers will assist you in troubleshooting and help you repair your broken item. Keeping items in service longer reduces waste and avoids the energy and resources used to create replacement items.
What Can You Bring In?
Anything you can carry in (except computers and cell phones) is fair game: lamps, hair dryers, toasters, clothing, bikes, furniture and toys are examples of what we can help repair. The Repair Café “fixers” have the experience to advise, assist and teach you how to carry out the repair. We can even repair some items that are no longer manufactured. If we find the item is not repairable, we will offer advice on where to recycle it. Since 2018 our skilled volunteers have saved hundreds of items from the landfill.
