Another Quick Recycling Tip in our series:
“Linda, Danny, and Kathy are a few volunteers extraordinaire who assist residents and keep the Swap Shop organized and running smoothly.” (Photo from a June 14, 2014 post on Darien Recycling Center’s Facebook timeline)
Since it opened in late 2009, the SWAP SHOP at the Darien Recycling Center has been a local hot spot.
Staffed entirely by volunteers, the Swap Shop saves taxpayers dollars by reducing the amount of waste we pay to have hauled away.
A few simple guidelines: items dropped off must be in usable or repairable condition. No TVs, air conditioners, clothing, mattresses or cribs.
Hours are 7 a.m. to [2 p.m.] and a valid permit is required for entry.
Best of all, no swaps are required to shop! Residents can take what they want and contribute as they see fit.
