Decommissioning Appointments
Interested in decommissioning your firearms and don’t see any upcoming Guns to Gardens safe surrender events on the calendar?
Fill out the form to schedule a decommissioning appointment with our team!
Once we receive your info, a team member will reach out to walk you through the details and schedule an appointment.
How Does It Work?
You’ll meet us at the decommissioning location on the scheduled date/time with the firearm(s) unloaded in the trunk of your car.
Trained volunteers will greet you and remove the firearm(s) from your trunk while you remain in the vehicle.
Once the firearm(s) have been confirmed unloaded and safe, you’ll be invited to step out of your vehicle and provided with safety gear to watch the decommissioning process.
You’ll then have the option of keeping or donating the remaining pieces of your decommissioned firearm(s) to be turned into garden tools, art, and other symbols of peace for the community.
*Please note: decommissioning appointments with Guns to Gardens PNW are currently only available in Portland.
If you are outside of the Portland area, please still fill out the Appointment Request form. We are always working on expanding our network and may be able to help.
