In order to keep the sheds as neat as possible we ask that all larger donations be dropped off to a separate location. Please contact us about dropping off a large donation!

What hours can i access the sheds for donating or taking product?

South Philly Shed- 24/7

Blackwell & Walnut Street Library locations- Please visit library pages for open hours as they are frequently updated.

What if i visit the shed to pick-up product and none is available?

We do run on a majority mutual-aid model, so often times the shed will be emptied pretty quickly of the most needed items. You can always check back to see if any product has been added. We value feedback and want to know how we can better improve access, so please feel free to shoot us a message letting us know which shed you were at and which item you were looking for.

Are there ways to help with the sheds?

Absolutely!

We are always looking for language translators to help us improve and expand our access to the community. Right now we have a need for Mandarin, Spanish, Cambodian, Khmer, and Portuguese translations. Contact us here to help!

We are also in the process of creating a volunteer initiative where neighborhood members and groups can check-in on the sheds and provide updates, cleaning, and re-stocking. Check back soon for that!
