Clothing and Household Swap and Drop


It's spring (believe it or not) and time to clean out all that unwanted stuff!
Instead of leaving it in the laundry room or throwing it in the dumpster, why not bring your clothing and household discards to the Salem Recycles Clothing and Household Swap 'N' Drop being held on Salem Common, Saturday, May 7th? The event is from 10:00 AM til 1:00 PM with swapping going on between 10 and 12. Swap or simply drop off: women's men's and children's clothing, accessories, and small household items (please all in working order) Textiles can be in any condition but must be Clean and Dry.
Items not swapped will be picked up by RECYCLE THAT.
In addition , you may bring your plastic bags for recycling.
The event is sponsored by SalemRecycles, the city's volunteer recycling committee.

Do Not Park Your Scooters Here


















The warmer weather is coming (believe it or not!) and as a result, we are having a recurring issue with tenants and guests parking their scooters and motorcycles in the side lot. This area is not intended for long-term parking of any kind, including bikes, motorcycles and scooters. It makes it difficult for vehicles to maneuver in the space and also may present a liability issue.
There is space on the E-market side of the building, behind a gate with a lock, that is available for this kid of warm-weather parking. You can also park in front of the building (if you can find a space). If you leave your bike or scooter in the dumpster-side lot, it will be removed at your expense. Thank you for your cooperation in this.
