Text Box: Swap Shop—Opening in August 2008
This is a recycling center favorite! You can bring anything new or used, but nothing broken. From bikes, TV’s, A/C’s, books, etc. When you have your next yard sale, we will take anything that is left over.
There is something for everyone! And remember, you don’t always have to bring something to take something!
