Donation Guide
Make your donations successful!

• Clothes should be clean and wearable. Clothes that are wet, mildewed, torn or stained cannot be used. Please bag shoes & clothing separately from other household donations.
• Toys with small parts / games with small pieces should be clearly packaged together before donating.
• Small & large appliances should be clean and fully operational. (Those who can’t afford new most likely can’t afford to fix them)
• Boxes that are full and closeable are easier to manage, stack and store than ones that are too full and running over.
• Removing personal identity from audio/visual and books secures your privacy.
• Leaving donations during receiving hours secures their protection from theft, weather damage and vandalism.
• Furniture donations should be in good useable condition. (Things that are broken and are expensive to repair are not helpful to those in need)
• Please give donations thought. If it’s not worth keeping chances are it’s not worth giving. Nobody should have to live with another person’s broken or poor condition cast offs.
• Delivering donations in disposable unneeded containers saves processing.

Donations Receiving Hours:
Monday – Saturday 9:00 am to 5:00 pm
(Please bring large donations early to allow time for us to absorb them into storage)
