KEEP USABLE ITEMS OUT OF THE TRASH STREAM

DROP THEM OFF AT THE SWAP SPOT at BULKY WASTE

Friday and Saturday 9-3 -- April 24-25; July 17-18; October 9-10

Murdoch Property, Route 101

Pomfret’s Swap Spot at Bulky Waste drop-off days is one of the smartest ways to keep items out of the trash stream.

We accept usable items in good condition:

  • household, back yard, and garage items too good to toss
  • no longer used items stored in attics and basements
  • furniture
  • tools
  • sports equipment
  • bicycles
  • collectibles

Unfortunately, there are some items we cannot accept:

       •  TVs and electronics (unless new)

       •   bathroom fixtures (unless new)

  • holiday decorations
  • sleep sofas
  • old-style storm windows

Our ultimate goal is to collect drop-offs and hold in a dry, protected building so the Swap Spot becomes the first place to look for something before heading to the store. Unfortunately, we currently have no storage and only two days in April, July, and October. So, for the foreseeable future:

  • come early
  • drop off and/or look for something you could use
  • and remember, everything is free!

ALSO: Swap Spot collects good and repairable bicycles for the Little Angels Program in Willimantic, where the bikes are renewed and given to new riders at no charge.
