This is a great way for the Orem community and beyond to connect and share in our abundance. This event is in partnership with the City of Orem's Spring Clean Up. At the entrance to Palisade Park, those wanting to find the dumpsters will turn right; those wanting to find the Free SWAP will turn left toward the pavilion.
Date: Saturday 19 April 2025 Location: Palisade Park - 1313 E 800 N, Orem Time: 8:00 am to 1:00 pm (NOTE: No new donations after 12:30 pm)
This event also makes a great volunteer opportunity. The more volunteers the better the experience for everyone. *Furniture is allowed, but nothing too heavy that requires specialty moving equipment. We cannot accept TV/computer monitors, mattresses, or tires.
