Recycle Utah TINKER TEAM

Recycle Utah’s Tinker Team helps restore broken items to a usable quality and recirculate these items back into the community. Not only does this help prevent valuable material from entering the landfill, but it helps conserve natural resources by avoiding manufacturing of new products.

The Tinker Team helps fix items donated to Recycle Utah in the Warehouse Thrift Store, and also helps repair items at local repair clinics.

Donate your time & talent by joining our Tinker Team! If you have skills or experience fixing things, we need you. Fill out the form below if you’re interested in giving new life to broken items.

Donations Accepted

Please check in with staff before dropping off items in the warehouse. All items must be in good, working condition!

All of the materials available for sale in The Warehouse are donated. We gratefully accept many donations, but we do have limitations. Please see our list of acceptable items below. Feel free to reach out if you have a question or wish to donate an item that is not explicitly listed.

Donation receipts are available on request.

Purchases:
All purchases made in The Warehouse help support the operations of our center. Prices are determined by RU Warehouse staff and may vary based on the age and quality of the material. If an item is not priced, please ask a staff member for pricing.
