Join the Swap Shop

Thank you for your interest in joining the Sunnyside Swap Shop C0-op.

We welcome new members into the co-op every quarter:

Winter quarter	Spring	Summer	Fall
January-March	April – June	July – September	October – December

Members pay a $25 joining fee and $30 per month to participate.

Reduced rate memberships at $20 a month are available for working families using our space mostly on evenings and weekends, families wishing to support the co-op but not able to visit more than once or twice a month and families wishing to work more and pay less.

Trade memberships are available to full time students, unemployed and low income families willing to take on a larger co-op job in lieu of member fees.  To find out what kinds of trade member jobs are currently available, contact co-op facilititator/coordinator, Karen Hery at sunnysideswapshopgmailcom  sunnysideswapshopgmailcom   or (503) 407-2667.

Two ways to join: By mail and in person.  Applications for membership can be downloaded from this page and are available at the co-op.  If you already have an application that you have yet to turn in, please follow the directions below.

By Mail:  Include your check and Swap Shop Member Application with Autopay Form (if selected) to Sunnyside Swap Shop Co-op, 3520 SE Yamhill Street, Portland OR  97214

Include a bank or cashier’s check for the $25 joining fee and applicable membership fees.  At any point in the quarter, if you include an autopay form with a check for just $55 (joining fee and your first month), your ongoing membership payments will be automatically withdrawn from your bank account each month.  Total for the quarter if paying by check is $115 for the joining fee and all three months of the quarter, $85 for last two months of the quarter or $55 for just the last month of a quarter.    Members not on auto pay continue to pay for each quarter by check or cash by the end of the first month of each quarter.  If you are joining mid month by check or autopay, you can prorate the month you are joining to $15 instead of $30.
In Person: Tues – Thurs 9am-noon and during sunnysideswapshopgmailcom  sunnysideswapshopgmailcom   or (503) 407-2667.

Our Member Agreement is sent to all joining members.  When you join in person or on your first day visiting the Swap Shop after joining by mail, you’ll be asked to fill out a First Day Checklist.

Your membership stays active until you cancel your autopay by email or until you stop renewing your membership with quarterly check or cash payments.
