Buying or selling items online? Make your exchanges safer at the Exchange Zone, a designated public space for legal, private transactions.

Location: Two clearly marked parking spaces in front of Police Headquarters, 3730 Blenheim Blvd.

Why Use the Exchange Zone?
  • Safe and neutral location – Reduces the risk of fraud and crime

  • Free and available to the public – No need to arrange private meeting spots

Important Guidelines 
  • The Exchange Zone is not a drop-off site. If the transaction does not take place, you must take your items with you.

  • Police personnel do not assist with transactions.

Safety Tips for Online Exchanges
  • Bring someone with you. Avoid going alone, especially when meeting a stranger.

  • Meet in public locations. Do not agree to meet in remote or secluded areas.

  • Inform someone of your plans. Share the exchange details, including time, location, and contact information, with a friend or family member.

  • Protect your personal information. Do not share details such as your address, Social Security number, or bank account information.

  • Meet during daylight hours whenever possible, even at the Exchange Zone.
