swap * meet is a social gathering that aims to lessen the amount of clothing/textiles that will end up in landfills. Through this form of recycling, participants will benefit by swapping their unwanted clothes (or other wearable items), meeting like-minded people while satisfying the desire for attaining something 'new'. Swappers will not accumulate debt, guilt or stress from swapping.

To ensure that all the clothing from swap * meet stays out of landfills leftovers are: sent to textile recyclers, upcycled into reusable items or will be donated to local charities.
