It is in GreenSpace’s mission to help divert our wastes from going to our landfills.
With that, we have compiled a list of places to turn over, donate, and/or sell the things you plan to throw away.
You can also submit resources as we continuously update the list.
This site is still under construction. Thank you for your understanding!
