Set up by a group of skilled and dedicated lower North Shore residents, our motto is “Toss it? No way!!” We want to fix it!
Our usual schedule is the 1st and 2nd Sunday each Month, from 2pm to 4pm at the Living & Learning Centre, 180 Longueville Road, Lane Cove.
You do not need to make a booking. Just turn up and you will be allocated a time slot between 2-4pm. We endeavour to fit in as many repairs as possible. To be fair on everyone please be aware of the number of items you bring. If you arrive after 3.30 we may not be able to complete your repair if we are busy.
Please note that for gadget/electrical repairs the last time slot is 3.30 as they can take a while to repair.
Last time slot for other items is 3.45pm.
