Don’t:
- Don’t drop items and run! Please don’t leave boxes or bags in the gym or outside the church without unpacking and distributing the items onto the tables.
- Don’t bring trash or unusable items. No broken, smelly, hazardous, or soiled items, please! Make sure anything requiring chargers, cords, or other components has everything needed to work properly.
- Don’t bring oversized furniture or appliances. No mattresses, bed frames, refrigerators, or freezers. Remember items need to be easily carried by a single person.
- Don’t bring cash or sell anything. This is a Buy Nothing event! Give freely, take what you need, and share with your neighbors without expectations.
