ReClaim It! is a nonprofit arts and reuse retail store that salvages materials from the "dump" (Metro Transfer Station operated by Recology) for artists, neighbors, and DIYers to Reuse, Repair, and Reimagine.

REUSE
Our goal is to reduce the amount of items that end their journey at the landfill and raise awareness about creative reuse. In our partnership with Recology, we are able to gather materials from the Metro Central Transfer Station including wood, metal and vintage items. Our volunteers are trained to collect items that can be reused in the home, garden or for creative purposes.
REPAIR
Many of the items we recover from the Metro transfer station only need a little T.L.C. to reenter the home or garden. Volunteers clean and repair items in the store in an effort to save those pieces for future use. Need a special piece of metal, rubber, wire or plastic? We’re likely to have it, along with a few items you didn't know you needed.
REIMAGINE
To us, nothing is junk. Each piece we glean, repair or save can be used creatively for practical or creative purposes. We love being able to collaborate with the thriving artistic community. Have a creative bent yourself? Lead a workshop, display your work in our gallery or connect with the crackedpots art show.
