Donate Tools

Do you have underused household tools that are cluttering up the basement, garden shed, or kitchen cupboards?

For tools with safety guard features, we request that they come equipped when you donate the tool. We aim to accept all quality donations and if we cannot utilize your donation as part of our inventory, we will make every effort to reuse or recycle it the best we see fit. 

Please contact us to make arrangements to drop off all tool donations.

Unfortunately, we cannot accept:

  • Construction materials
  • Plumbing materials
  • Electrical materials and fixtures or parts and supplies
  • Propane or gas-powered tools
  • Cordless tools with batteries that no longer charge
  • Cordless tools with Ni-Cad batteries having less than 18 volt capacity
  • Appliances with compressors (air conditioners, dehumidifiers, refrigerators)

If you have any questions regarding donating tools to the Ottawa Tool Library, please contact us.
