Calendar event image

Cambridge’s Recycling Advisory Committee (RAC) is organizing a Free Store on Sunday, June 1, at the Cambridge Community Center, 5 Callender St. to help reduce move out waste.

Shopping hours are 11 am to 1 pm.  Please enter at the Callender Street door.

Dropoff hours are 10:30 am-12 pm at the Howard Street side of the building; temporary parking will be available there.

At the Free Store, you’re invited to drop off and/or shop for clothing and shoes, household goods, small electronics, books and media, office supplies, and toys. Please only bring items in good, usable condition. Unfortunately, we cannot accept large or bulky items, furniture, TVs, computer monitors, or hazardous waste at this event.

Volunteers are crucial to the success of the Free Store. If you're excited about helping to divert thousands of usable items from the landfill, we invite you to fill out this form to sign up as a volunteer! For additional questions, please reach out to racfreestore@gmail.com.
