What volunteers will do: event setup, move items from the drop-off area to tables, organize items on tables, and cleanup after the swap closes. The swap is like a fun, busy pop-up store with constantly changing inventory. Swap volunteers are welcome to take items as well.
Melrose Swap Day, Saturday June 7, 2025 from 8am – 12pm
NEW LOCATION: Melrose High School parking lot, enter on Melrose Street
Drop off donation items accepted only until 11am. Do not have to bring something to take something! Or take something if dropping off. EVERYTHING IS FREE! Swap-Day-Flyer.pdf
ZWM needs extra people-power this year to run the event without DPW staff. We’re calling on the community to help make Swap Day a success.
What volunteers will do: event setup, move items from the drop-off area to tables, organize items on tables, and cleanup after the swap closes. The swap is like a fun, busy pop-up store with constantly changing inventory. Swap volunteers are welcome to take items as well.
In the sign-up form, you can select a specific job or a general “swap staff” shift. When signing up to volunteer, please select each time slot and activity you’re interested in. Shorter and longer shifts are available, and pitching in for multiple time slots (like a late morning shift plus cleanup) is greatly appreciated.
Come for a couple of hours or stay for the whole event! Online sign-up is available now!
Thank you,
