Here at Resource we reduce, reuse and recycle everyday! Come in and see what new finds you can pick up to make your home or project a little more “green.”

Here’s a great new piece located at the Carlisle Avenue location. It’s a loft style bunk bed that has shelving space beneath it. This could be a great addition to a kid’s room allowing them more space while still having a cool new bed and desk area! It’d make a great place for homework and studying.

So come by the ReSource locations and see what great new finds that we’re receiving everyday!

Have you been by the Carlisle Avenue location lately? Stop by and check out the “Green Room.” Pick up some great finds for only $.25 each or 5/$1! There are some great reusable materials of all sorts from wallpaper borders, to greeting cards, to mugs and housewares.

You never know, the inspiration for your next DIY project could be waiting here in the Green Room!

Over at our Carlisle Avenue location we have a great new piece waiting to find it’s new home. It’s an antique “Smokers Table” that was donated. Smoker’s Tables were used for many years during the Victorian Era as ashtrays and storage for pipes and tobacco products. Even if you’re not a smoker today, this piece would make a great conversation starter in your home or a unique decorative end table!

Each Second Saturday offers two fun learning opportunities:

- helpful home improvement tips and advice for all the nuts and bolts things you need for projects around the house from our regular staff as well as guest DIY guru’s, and

- creative reuse workshops featuring make-and-take projects made by repurposing cool “stuff” you can find in our stores.

Helpful Hints are always free. Workshops require pre-registration* which includes a supplies fee (price based on the project). Space is limited. If there are openings day of event, workshop “at the door” fee is $5 more than pre-registration.

The Tree of Love is on display in our RSY location at 161 E. Ninth Avenue, North York

Express the enormity of your love for your special someone with a gift that already has a history of true love.

Thirty years ago, on the occasion of their wedding, a York couple received a ficus tree. (Also known as a fig tree, a symbol of fertility, but no pressure, right?) Just like the couple’s love for one another, the tree grew and grew and grew over the past three decades.

Unloading the moving truck when they relocated down South recently, however, they were saddened to discover their beloved tree somehow wasn’t packed in with the rest of their things and therefore, didn’t make the trip. Needing to get it out of their old house immediately, they turned to Re-Source York with an urgent request to accept the tree as a donation. It had, after all, been a “home improvement” item in their home for many years.

Now we recognize not everyone has space for a tree of this size – with pot and soil and such it must weigh about 300 pounds – but SOMEONE must have room for it!

So, in a spirit of this season of all things love, we are extending an opportunity to our customers, friends, and the community at large, to WIN this lovely tree.

It’s as simple as sharing your story of enduring and/or romantic love in 50 to 100 words or so. We will choose from all entries and the winner becomes the new owner of the” Tree of Love.”

Feel free to share your story on our Facebook page, email it to store manager, Nikki (nikki@resourceyork.com), or send via post to RSY Tree of Love, 161 E. Ninth Avenue, York PA 17404.

We look forward to hearing from you!

Some have seats still covered in plastic. Some have no seats at all (but, my oh my, they have good bones), and some have seats AND attached fold-away desks! We also have office chairs, kid-size chairs, the occasional rocking chair, and upholstered chairs. There are chairs at both RSY locations. Come in and have a seat!

In addition to donations of home improvement items for resale, Re-Source York continues to accept electronics for e-cycling at both of its locations during regular business hours.

The 161 E. Ninth Avenue store in North York is open Monday through Friday, 9am to 5pm, Saturday, 9am to 4pm.

The 405 Carlisle Avenue, York store is open Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday 11am to 6pm; Friday and Saturday, 9am to 4pm.

While no cash is offered, donors will receive a charitable tax form for items brought in.
