Donations - How and What

Donations can be made at our retail stores and attended donation centers. Goodwill’s philosophy is, “Give to Goodwill what you would give to a friend.”

The lists below are to be used as guidelines. There are many items we can sell in the stores that are not on the list. There may be other items that need to be turned down due to size, condition or suitability. For more information, please contact the retail store nearest you, email us, or call 1-800-432-GIVE (1-800-432-4483).
