We have been all too accustomed to the throw away lifestyle. If
something doesn't work, throw it out and buy a new one. Because of
this behavior our landfills are filling at a rapid rate and electronic
waste has become the one of the largest pollution generators. So why
not learn how to fix it?!Bring your broken, non-functioning things:
electronics, appliances, computers, toys, bicycles, clothes, etc. for
assessment, disassembly, and possible repair. We’ll provide
workspace, specialty tools, and guidance disassemble and troubleshoot
your item. Whether we fix it or not, you’ll learn more about how it
was manufactured and how it worked. This is a family-friendly event:
children are heartily invited!
FAQS
IS THIS EVENT LOCATED IN THE SAME LOCATION EACH MONTH?
We love to give more opportunity to the San Diego County community, so
we have decided to move the SD Fixit Clinic to difference locations of
the County a couple weeks a month. At this moment we have consistent
events in San Diego, Chula Vista and Vista. More coming soon.
HOW IS THE PARKING?
Parking can be an issue.
HOW MANY ITEMS CAN I BRING TO THE EVENT?
Please bring ONE ITEM that needs to repaired and keep in mind we will
try our best to solve the problem but not every case is a success.

DOES THIS COST MONEY?
No, this is a free event but please keep in mind this is not a free
drop off and fix event. This event is hands-on for people that would
like learn how to fix their items themselves with the help of our
awesome Coaches. It would be great if you could bring your own
supplies, but we will have some to share.
There would be costs involved if your item needs additional or
replacement parts. We may have some spare parts but it is the
responsibility of the attendee to purchase and bring necessary parts
the day of the event
WILL YOU ACCEPT WALK-INS?
If time permits we will take walk-ins. It really depends on how
quickly we can repair the items of the registered attendees.
DO YOU TAKE DONATIONS OF TOOLS AND SUPPLIES?
Oh boy do we, if you have any old tools you don't need please bring
them into to the next FIXIT CLINIC AND/or email US at
sdfixitclinic@gmail.com to arrange drop off locations.
