Repair Fair Coming Up

On Saturday, April 20th the Addison County Solid Waste Management District is hosting a FREE Repair Fair at the American Legion in Middlebury. From 10 AM – 2 PM, enjoy refreshments, learn basic repair skills, and get your favorite items fixed by your neighbors in Addison County!

How to Participate:
Volunteer: If you have skills in electronics or appliance repair, sewing, mending, woodworking, bike repair, or similar fixer talents, you can sign up to be a volunteer fixer! We need volunteer fixers to help fix participants’ items of all kinds, as well as volunteers to help staff the event. All volunteers will be provided with tools if needed and refreshments. You can sign up to be a volunteer at https://www.AddisonCountyRecycles.org/repair-fair

Bring your items: Sign up to have an item fixed on our website! To minimize waiting times for everyone, please join the back of the line for each subsequent item to be repaired. If your item requires specialty parts for repair, please bring them to increase the chances of it being fixed. All items require pre-registration.
