Resources

Since 2015, we have gathered abundant resources to limit landfill contribution. We do this by donating, recycling, and upcycling.

As we have gained experience over the years, we have also built a list of tips, techniques, professionals, and some very creative ways to reuse your items.

Donations
We do everything we can to bring items to reputable donation centers, non-profits and places that value limiting landfills and giving back to the community.
- Bridging
- Habitat for Humanity
- Avivo
- Pianocycle
- Puzzler’s Exchange

- Flying Pig Thrift
- Solid Ground
- People & Pets Together

Recycling
We recycle as many items as possible to reduce landfill contribution. This includes metal, plastic, light bulbs, mattresses, and electronics.

We use:
- Recycling dumpsters
- Local scrappers
- Tech Dump
- Green Lights Recycling
- Freecycle.org
While we are unable to dispose of chemicals for you due to EPA restrictions and fees, most counties offer free drop-off sites for hazardous waste disposal. We can assist you in locating these resources.
Upcycling
While your items may not offer a meaningful financial gain, they CAN be of value to local artists, small time collectors, and salvage hobbyists.

We have a network of people who can bring beauty back to broken furniture or repurpose old items into something new that would otherwise clog a landfill or sit unpurchased in an antique shop. We put your items into the right creative hands!

Creative Solutions
In the process of clearing out a wonderfully preserved 1960’s home we were having a difficult time finding places for a large mid-century modern curved couch in excellent condition, tables, old pictures, and ceramic lamps. Very unique items that needed a special place, and one of our staff suggested reaching out to The Lyric Arts Theater in Anoka. They were more than happy to pick up the items for their upcoming play “A Raisin in the Sun”. As a thank you, the client received tickets to the show and an acknowledgement in the show’s program! Since then, we have provided them with a wide variety of items that have been used in numerous shows.
