Swap in the City is a small community swap hub with weekly drop-in & swap times with occasional events focused on circular economy, sustainability and other arenas.

DROP-IN SWAPS

Our swaps are about gifting high quality items to others through the swap pool, and not dumping unwearable or undesirable stuff for someone else to deal with. Think of it like what you would gift to your bestie or a loved one.

HOW THE DROP-IN SWAP WORKS

RSVP your chosen swap day
Drop in at anytime within the 3-hour window of your swap day
Bring a maximum of 3 items
Swap items are checked for quality control
Swappers will be given 1 swap token for each accepted item that goes into the swap
Swap tokens will be issued to swappers based on the number of items accepted into the swap
You can then browse and select their swap treasures
Trade in tokens for the new swap items

WHAT TO BRING

When selecting items to bring to swap, think ‘gifting’ quality items that will go to a good home where they’ll be used and cherished. And not dumping your hideous stuff because we won’t take it.

Our system is imperfect but we will continue to improve our sorting process.

WHAT WE ACCEPT

Quality items made from natural fabrics, handmade garments, retro & vintage fashion, luxury brands, slow fashion clothing and non-fast fashion brands.

WHAT WE CANNOT ACCEPT

Fast fashion brands, underwear, used pyjamas and overused workout gear, odorous, moldy, dirty, damaged, pilling, stained and excessively faded garments.
