7:30-8:00pm
Cleanup happens right after we’re done Swapping. The more people the faster this step will go.
The Cleanup Crew is responsible for staying until:
* the last table is taken down and put away
* the last corner is swept
* the last leftover is bagged/boxed
* the last bag/box is carried to the vehicles
With enough help this takes 30-60 minutes.

Friday, 7:30-8:00pm - CLEAN UP & LOAD trailers
We need a couple trailers for transporting leftovers to a thrift store.
Due to lack of trailers in the past, we’d greatly appreciate it if EVERYONE would take a bag or three of clothing to a donation center at your convenience, while the trailers will be used for fragile, large, and or heavy items.
Saturday, 10am - DROP OFF at Thrift Store
Goodwill Thrift Store in Post Falls, 4040 E 16th Ave

Shopping is always better with snacks! Feel free to bring a snack to share!
Do you have a family business!?
Feel free to bring gift baskets, coupons, flyers, business cards, and or other forms of advertisement. We’ll have a free drawing for gift baskets during the swap.
Pre-sort the items you are bringing beforehand as best you can because there are so many "treasures"! Please take this into consideration when you are packing up your contributions throughout the season!
Leave stained or damaged items home please… Let’s be kind to each other and the thrift stores and not make them sort through mountains of leftover non-saleable items.
Click the Pre-Sort Button for a list of categories.
Due to size constraints, please limit your invites to 2 guests (only people you personally know, because this is a private event) who would be NEW participants to our swap. (All previous participants are welcome).
Email the Swap Coordinators with your friend’s email address. We will email your friends.
