Donate Goods
We thank you for your donations, because they change lives.
Donated merchandise is sold in our stores to help support our programs that empower individuals with disabilities and other barriers to employment to gain independence through the power of work. Because Goodwill is a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization, you can receive a tax receipt directly upon request at the store or any other attended location.

HOW TO DONATE

At Our Stores

All of Goodwill’s stores accept donations of clothing, shoes, jewelry, accessories, handbags, luggage, household goods and other items.

Our Donation Bins​

Goodwill offers both public and private residential bins to make donating more convenient.

We can place bins in buildings with 30 or more apartments in an area where Goodwill has stores. Want to request a donation bin?

Attended Donation Centers​

Goodwill’s DonationXpress centers are staffed to make it quick and easy to drop off goods and get your tax receipt.

The donations that you bring there are delivered to Goodwill stores where they are sold to provide support for our mission.

Donation Drives

Goodwill benefits greatly from donation drives held on our behalf.

The donors vary greatly and include: scout troops, corporate offices, residential buildings, local schools, college move-outs, area stores and businesses, elected officials’ recycling events, and church drives. We bring bins to collect the donations and pick them up when the drive is over.

Vehicle Donations

Goodwill will accept any vehicle in any condition, including cars, motorcycles, boats, trailers, and snowmobiles as long as you have a clear title in your name.

Pickups can be arranged within 24 to 48 hours, and free towing and a tax receipt will be provided.
