Swap your goods–A message from CalRecycle

One man’s orange may earn another man’s apple

One person’s trash is another person’s treasure, so swap your old stuff for their hidden gems. How? Throw a swap party; join an online swap/#reuse community; or take your stuff to a local swap shop. If fixing things is your forte, swap your skills for something awesome or volunteer to teach others how to repair their stuff. Search online, “reuse swap,” to find the right swap for you. What people want and the treasures you discover may surprise you. Go towww.calrecycle.ca.gov/reducewaste for more #waste reduction tips.

Office supplies and equipment collecting dust around your office? If you’ve got ‘em, someone needs ‘em. #Donate unused office materials to a school or charity. Your business may even get a tax credit for helping your community and the #environment. To search for a charity or school near you, go to earth911.com.
