Join us to to recycle, reuse and reduce! Drop off your cleaned gently-used & working CLOTHES, SHOES, BOOKS, & TOYS. Browse the selection & fill a bag to take. No need to bring things to take things. Out of consideration for others, we may limit what you take to the greater of 1 bag or the total number of bags of items that you bring. We also do *not* allow taking donated items to resell. Why?
