At Fix-it Clinics, we support sustainable consumption and divert waste from the landfill by fixing items that usually end up in the trash. Our incredible team of volunteers can help you fix almost anything, including electronics, jewelry, clothing, bicycles, and more!
When is the next Fix-it Clinic?
Saturday, November 4th, 2023 at the Joe C. Montoya Senior and Community Center (245 N. Thorpe Rd.) from 10am-2pm.
Appointments
Fix-it Clinics are very popular and we strongly recommend making an appointment. Please provide details about what is wrong with your item(s) so we can plan accordingly.
Please bring replacement parts with you, we have limited supplies to make basic repairs. If replacement parts are not available your item will have a lower chance of being fixed by the wonderful volunteers.
Please visit the Appointment Webpage today!

How does it work?
- We recommend that you make a Fix-It Clinic Appointment online. Appointments are not required, however, community members with appointments will be given priority at the event.
- On the event day, bring your item to the Clinic, and a volunteer will work with you to fix the item. Some of the most commonly fixed things are lamps, coffee makers, and clothing items.
- If your item cannot be fixed, we will provide you with a list of options, including recycling the item, coming to the next Fix-it Clinic with additional materials to fix the item, or working with a different fixer in the future.
What have past clinics looked like?
Fix-it Clinics typically take place every four months. More than 60 items were saved from the landfill at our last event.
