Do you have a lamp, small appliance, textile, or bike in need of repair?
Bring it to the Repair Fair!
Volunteers and specialized repair professionals will be on-hand to repair* your items. We ask that you stay with your item while it's being fixed, so you can learn tips for future maintenance, how to shop for repairable goods, and even how to repair things yourself!
If you’d like to bring an item to repair, please register the item here:
https://www.reusealliance.org/rf-reg (Pre-registering allows us to prepare for your item!)
This is a free public event.
*We cannot guarantee your item(s) will be repaired, depending on the existing damage or breakage, ability of volunteer fixers, and availability of materials for repair. Note we cannot work on microwaves and we can’t repair cell phones but we’re happy to refer you to local professionals who can. In addition, the textile department is not able to perform the following:
Replacing zippers
Taking in/letting out waistbands
Replacing rivets/grommets
Hemming certain fabrics (stretchy fabric, sleek/luxury fabrics e.g. prom dresses)
If you are in need of garment hemming, we request that you please pin your garment to the desired length before you arrive.
