The South Portland Swap Shop at the municipal Transfer Station accepts reusable goods from South Portland residents and makes them available to other residents at no charge. The city lists acceptable categories including household and kitchen items, home decor, toys and games, sporting goods, working small electronics, garden tools and supplies, functional hardware, books and media, art and craft supplies, office supplies, mobility aids, artwork and like-new luggage or bags. The city excludes clothing and shoes, fabrics and bedding, broken or dirty items, upholstered goods, hazardous materials, large appliances, bulky items and other restricted categories. Items are screened for condition and suitability, and the shop operates seasonally with hours dependent in part on volunteer availability. Save a trip! Call South Portland Swap Shop first to confirm hours and that they are accepting what you’re bringing.
