Today we are fixing small electronics, wooden items, clothing, soft toys, bikes and general repairs. Have something weird that doesn't fit in a category? Try us!
Hang out, have a chat and enjoy a fresh-baked snack and a tea or a cup of freshly brewed coffee from Kokako Organic Coffee. Koha is welcome for refreshments and for our lovely volunteers.
Once or twice a month we also offer home electrical appliance repairs, when our electrician is with us. Watch the ALoT Facebook page or the Repair & Share event discussion for announcements!

Bus stops on Ponsonby Rd (InnerLink, 20, 105, 106, 866), Great North Rd (11T/W, 18, 20, 195), and Karangahape Rd (WX1)
We are also near the northwestern cycleway.

Some things to note:
∙ One item at a time please. You are welcome to bring a second item, and can check in that item after your first piece has been assessed/repaired.
∙ Make sure to come early, so you can get your item registered in time.
∙ We don't work with microwaves.
∙ We do not do clothing alterations, only repairs and mending jobs.
If you would like to help out, we'd love to hear from you! We need skilled repairers, reception, photography and story-finding, cafe help, baking, first aid and more. Send us a message to find out how you can help!
