(Barrie, ON) Think of it as two great big free environmentally friendly garage sales! That’s what Barrie’s annual Free Goods Exchange Days are all about. Take advantage of this terrific opportunity to clear out functional items from the garage, shed, or basement and place them out for others to enjoy. Items should be in good condition and could include unwanted items such as furniture, clothing, books, tools, sporting goods, toys, etc.
What: Free Goods Exchange Days
Why: To reduce the amount of waste generated within our community by promoting the reuse of desirable goods which decreases the amount of waste going to our landfill
When: Saturday, June 13, 2009 and NEW Saturday, June 27, 2009
Time: 8 a.m. – 6 p.m.
Who: All City of Barrie residents are invited to participate, either by giving or receiving!
How: To place items out for the event, go to www.barrie.ca to download and print the Free Goods Exchange Day poster to place on your items notifying residents that you are participating in the event. Please place all items at the end of your driveway or edge of your lawn with the poster, by 8 a.m. on Saturday.
Leftovers must be removed by homeowners by 9 p.m. the same day. The City of Barrie will NOT provide a special collection for these materials. The City of Barrie does not accept responsibility for items inadvertently lost or stolen during Free Goods Exchange Days.
