Everyone's Resource Depot

Everyone's Resource Depot accepts clean, safe, cast-offs from Maine industries and individuals and sells them to the public at low cost. At ERD, we encourage creative recycling of a great variety of materials.  Why not save your pennies while helping to save the planet?

You might be surprised by the treasures companies discard.  We are, too! Everyone's Resource Depot has paper, envelopes, fabric, leather, boxes, Popsicle sticks, wood turnings, and dowels. Getting any crafty ideas? We also have plastic tubs, shoe lacings, cardboard tubes, buttons, yarn, colorful plastic shapes, foam, telephone wire, and much more. If you forgot that change purse today, we offer free egg cartons, containers, magazines, and other giveaways to artistically inspire you. Come look at the puppets, masks, and other objets d'art created by our busy staff!

Everyone's Resource Depot runs special workshops for kids.  Workshops include thematic activities surrounding Valentine's Day, Halloween, and other holidays. ERD also runs general workshops on everything from maskmaking to treasure box building. In July, we have a summer workshop series for kids called "July Arts and Crafts." When you support ERD, you also support the children in our community.  Come check us out!

Everyone's Resource Depot is located in Farmington on the corner of High and Lincoln Street.  You'll find us on the street level (Room 009) of the Education Center on the UMF campus. For further information, please call 778-7150.

Happy recycling!
