📚Ever wondered what exactly Bay State Book Company does? 📚

From collecting books to sorting them, finding opportunities for reuse and resale, and recycling what can't be reused, our goal is simple: keep as many books as possible in circulation and out of landfills.

Whether you have a few boxes, a library collection, or books piling up at home, we’re here to help give them somewhere to go. 💚

🤫Shhh… we’re up to something bookish! 📚

🍎We’ve put together a special collection of books for some very deserving teachers. 🍎

✨And honestly, putting these kinds of collections together is one of the very best parts of what we do. Knowing these books are headed somewhere they’ll be appreciated, enjoyed, and reused. 📖

🤫We’d tell you more… but we don’t want to ruin the surprise! 🤫

Stay tuned. We’ll spill the bookish beans soon!

📚 Happy National Book Lovers Day!

Book lovers know there’s something special about a good book. The stories, the memories, the notes in the margins, the books you can’t quite bring yourself to part with. We love helping those books find their next reader. 💚📖

🗻Sometimes the best bookmarks are memories. Found this stunning mountain photo in a book, dated 2000. Does anyone recognize the mountain or location?

Dropped off some books at a few neighborhood book-sharing boxes around town today. Do any of these spots look familiar? 📚

📚Every one of these was left behind in a book someone once read, loved, and paused along the way. We love discovering these little pieces of the reading journey!📚

🌱Sometimes a "book" isn't actually a book. 📚

From old photographs to pressed flowers, letters, and even the occasional surprise like this planter, every pickup has its share of unexpected discoveries.

You just donated over 300 books...well, you could. 😊

If you've been meaning to clear out overflowing bookshelves, we're here to help. Bay State Book Company offers free book pickups for homeowners with 300 or more books throughout much of New England.

Your books are sorted for reuse whenever possible, helping them find new readers through resale and donation programs. Books that can't be reused are responsibly recycled, keeping as many books as possible out of landfills.
