Local Reuse Stores

We’ve all heard the phrase before — one person’s trash is another’s treasure. Before looking for a place to dispose of something, try to think: “is it still usable?” Then check out our reuse store catalog! You can also post on Freecycle.org(R) or your local Front Porch Forum.

Additionally, there’s almost always a way to reuse items that you might normally throw out. Plastic bags, twist ties, bread clips, and other items that can’t be recycled can complement each other to store food and go bulk shopping. Even items that are put in the recycling (scrap paper, glass or plastic containers/bottles) will likely have more success being reused than tossed away. Just by searching “reusing items around the house” one can find so many creative ways to repurpose!
