“Goods Exchange Day 2026”

On Saturday, November 21, you can once again swap anything that’s still in good condition. It’s best to start preparing now and collect useful, nice, or quirky items leading up to the Swap Day on November 20 and 21. We’d like to thank everyone who doesn’t just throw away good things, and we hope you have a great time at the swap day. 

Drop off, exchange, pick up

If you don’t want to swap items, you can also just drop them off. If you just want to take something, you can also go on a “treasure hunt” in exchange for a donation of, say, €1.00. As always, donations will be collected by the Mainz-based organization “Armut und Gesundheit e. V.” It develops and supports projects that provide health care for socially disadvantaged people, particularly those who are homeless.
