This article describes how to accept the ToolBox Project Membership Liability Waiver and Tool Use Policy (Policy). This policy is effective Monday, May 1, 2023. All members must accept this policy to reserve tools online and to check them out.

There are two ways to accept the Policy: online and in person when checking out tools. We recommend that members use the online method at their convenience. If that is not possible or the process is not clear, we will be happy to assist you in person when you visit us next.

For questions about the Policy, please contact us.

Here are reasons you may not be able to renew your checked-out ToolBox Project tool, plus some information about what to do about it.

This video offers some tips on how to clean out an electric lawnmower. These tips work for all ToolBox Project lawnmowers. Thanks for returning tools in as good (or even better!) condition than you borrowed them!

This video is for ToolBox Project members to learn how to reserve tools on their own through their ToolBox Project account in MyTurn. Reservations are not required to borrow tools from ToolBox Project, but it can be helpful to reserve in-demand tools.

In 2016, our all-volunteer crew spent 56 days building Lane County's only tool lending library. See the slideshow below to view the build process, and scroll down for a list of the volunteers and community partners who made this happen.
