Glendale Clothing Swap

Join us for our sixth Community Clothing Swap! 

Bring up to 10 clean and gently used clothing items to exchange. No shoes, socks, jewelry, and accessories. Children's clothing is okay. 

Items can be dropped off at Casa Verdugo Library on Friday, September 6, 2024 from 1:00 PM  - 6:00 PM.

While you're swapping, you can check out the Free Book Shop, have some tea, coffee, or snacks. Make sure to bring your reusable cup! ☕

✨How the Clothing Swap Works!

  • Find up to 10 clean and gently used (no holes or tears) clothing items, like shirts, bottoms, dresses, jackets, and bags.

  • Jewelry, shoes, underwear, socks or any other accessories are not accepted.

  • You can drop your items off on Friday, September 7, 2024 from 1:00 PM - 6:00 PM at Casa Verdugo Library or bring them at the beginning of the clothing swap. We will stop accepting clothing contributions after 12:00PM at the event.

  • You’ll receive a Clothing Swap ticket which gives you priority access to the Clothing Swap.

  • Arrive between 11:00AM-1:00PM, show your ticket, and shop! Please don’t take more items than you brought.

  • After 12:00 PM, the Clothing Swap opens to the general public, and anyone can take as many items as they like. 

  • Once you finish swapping, check out the Free Book Shop, have a coffee, tea, and snacks!
