Free!
Bring your broken household items to the Repair Fair and one of our volunteer “fixers” will try to help you repair them. We can’t guarantee that everything will be repaired but you will get to learn more from an expert fixer and meet other people interested in keeping their things in their lives and out of the landfill.
The Repair Fair is more than just a way to fix your items. While you are here you can:
- Grab a beer or food from HighGrain Brewing
- Attend a fixit workshop.
- Keep trash out of the landfill with the Cincinnati Reuse and Recycling Hub.
- Get to know organizations in our region that are working hard to help us all be greener.

Collection Event
The Cincinnati Recycling & Reuse Hub will help keep your broken electronics out of the landfill!
The Hub will be present at this event to accept your unfixable electronics (smaller than a toaster oven).
Items accepted for recycling include: batteries, chargers/cables/cords, cellphones, tablets, blenders, CD and DVD players, hair dryer, curling iron, computer speakers, headphones, alarm clocks, remotes, irons, toaster oven, video game equipment, and other small electronics.
The Hub accepts many more items than what will be accepted at the Repair Fair. If you have items at home that you would like to recycle, we encourage you to recycle with them directly. Please visit our website for more information, www.
Collaborative Art
Make a cool art piece with upcycled materials.
To honor our repair fair host, we will be working on a collaborative art piece at the event. The piece will feature the HighGrain theme and be constructed with materials from the Cincinnati Recycling & Reuse Hub. Stop by and help us create something new from something old!
Why Register?
When you register you give our fixers a heads up on your repair. The fixers can look up necessary info as well as bring the right tools and materials.
