Our mission is to build a community where unused gear becomes a gift,
not waste - rehomed for free and shared sustainably!!
How it works:
If you have sporting gear in good/safe/working condition that your family has outgrown, please gift your gear during the drop-off dates.
If your family is looking for some 'new(ish)' gear - rehome the gifted gear for FREE on the rehoming day.
Gifting gear does not guarantee that you will find replacement gear for your family on the rehoming day.
You can rehome gear even if you have not gifted any gear. This is not an exchange.
This is NOT needs based, if your family will use/enjoy it, take it home.
In April 2025, we rehomed 105+ bikes (over 2,000 lbs) and a whole gym’s worth of gear!
