The following information was provided by the City of Watertown:
The Watertown Swap Shop is a free resource for our residents to share household items. As a volunteer-run sustainability initiative, we hope to encourage sharing and reuse, reduce consumption and waste, and connect neighbors across our community.
Hours and Location
The Watertown Swap Shop will be open 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. the First Saturday of every month unless otherwise noted (weather depending) from April through October. The hours of operation will be dependent upon the availability of volunteers to oversee the program. Closed during the winter months. The 2025 dates are:
- June 7 (First day open, taking donations only!) (Note, if there is lightening while the Swap Shop is scheduled to be open, it will close early for everyone’s safety.)
- July 12 (Second Saturday of July)
- August 2
- September 6
- October 4
The Swap Shop is located at the Watertown Recycle Center, 76 Stanley Ave.
You must park on the street on Green River Way or Stanley Ave if you are shopping at the Swap Shop. If you have donations, you can pull your car into the Recycle Center up to the Swap Shop to unload.
Thank you, I have wanted to do this for many years.
I would hope we can find a better location than the recycling center. The location across the street or better, the site of the old Starrett lumber yard would be way better locations.
Where can we get involved?
