Chicago Store Move Update: The Chicago location on Kimball Ave is now OPEN! Store hours are Tuesday—Sunday 11am-6pm. Come check us out!

Due to additional unplanned closed dates, we continue to ask for your support by donating to our fundraiser to help us recover lost sales, and cover our payroll.

The story so far:

Volunteers and staff worked tirelessly over the holidays to close up shop at our Chicago Ave location. All was packed away in tidy little boxes, furniture was dismantled expertly by volunteers, donations from yesteryear crawled out from their hidey-holes, our beautiful WasteShed sign was unscrewed from on high.

While we worked inside, dozens of people flocked to our FREE pile to help rid us of hundreds of pounds of materials and all the while, all across the internet, our supporters rallied to help us BEAT OUR FUNDRAISING GOAL! The movers showed up early! Things were looking good!

We were all ready to move into our new Kimball location early on New Years Eve, with two trucks full of our HQ in tow. Only to discover that our space wasn't quite ready!

Our new storefronts still need some finishing touches on construction. We're unable to move in our operations yet. Imagine our disappointment!

We are still not certain on our opening date for donations or our store front at this time. We are asking for your patience while we continue to pause our donation intake and cancel volunteer shifts and events for this week.

Our staff was anticipating coming back to work early this week to help set up the new store, but we're going to need a little bit more time. In the meantime we're not just watching concrete set and paint dry, our staff is hard at work on some special projects behind the scenes. We hope to bring you the Best in Trash in all of Chicagoland by mid January. Stay tuned! Please follow this page for updated timelines.
