The Tacoma Tool Library provides low-cost access to shared tools and other durable goods and encourages reuse, repair, and reduced consumption. In addition, it hosts a safe community space for learning how to use household tools, and empowers local residents to care for their homes and neighborhoods, house by house and block by block.

Want to borrow tools? It’s easy and low-cost to become a member. Members can borrow any of our 2,000+ available tools—everything from hammer drills to hand weeders—for two weeks at no charge. Use the tools, clean them, and return them to the library when you’re done. That’s it!
