Every toy is recall-checked, piece-counted, inspected for damage, and sanitized between families. Brands we carry meet CPSIA standards. We'll retire any toy that fails any inspection.
Before a toy enters our library
Brand check. We only buy from CPSIA-compliant manufacturers (Plan Toys, Hape, Melissa & Doug, Grimms, Lego, etc.).
Recall database check. Every SKU is cross-referenced against CPSC.gov/Recalls.
Age-appropriate tagging. We tag by manufacturer-stated age and our own inspection.
Baseline piece count. Recorded into our system for comparison at every return.
Between each family
Visual inspection. Damage, cracks, sharp edges.
Piece count. Compared to baseline. If pieces are missing, the toy is held until replaced.
Function test. Any battery/motion/mechanical element gets tested.
Re-photograph. We log condition for every return.
Retirement
Toys that fail any inspection are pulled from circulation. Salvageable toys are repaired and returned to the library. Non-salvageable toys are properly disposed of. Retired-but-safe toys are donated to local Southern Utah family-support programs.
Choking-hazard tagging
Toys with small parts are never in rotations for kids under 3. Your profile's age field is the first filter on what we'll queue for you.
Battery safety
Toys with button batteries: we verify the battery door is screw-secured before shipment. If it's not, the toy is pulled. For kids under 3, we avoid button-battery toys entirely.
