Local Insight: NYC is a fashion hub with diverse needs. Upstate requires cold weather gear.
Most donation centers accept gently used clothing, shoes, accessories, and household textiles. Items should be clean, dry, and in good condition. Many centers also accept bags, belts, hats, and linens.
Wash and dry all items before donating. Place clothing in bags or boxes that are easy to transport. Remove any items with stains, tears, or missing buttons. Pair shoes together and fold clothing neatly.
Yes, most charitable organizations provide tax receipts for donations. Ask for a receipt at the time of drop-off, or check if the donation bin has instructions for obtaining one. Keep your receipt for tax purposes.
Generally, donation centers do not accept wet, moldy, or heavily soiled items. Mattresses, car seats, and recalled items are typically refused. Check with the specific organization for their complete list of non-accepted items.
Donations are accepted year-round, but seasonal transitions are ideal times to clean out closets. Many centers have increased needs before winter and at the start of school seasons.
Many centers accept household goods, small appliances, books, toys, and furniture. Accepted items vary by organization, so check their guidelines before dropping off non-clothing items.
