Donating to Goodwill

It's that time of year for spring cleaning!

One great way to create reuse opportunities for clothes, furniture, household items and more is to donate to Goodwill. Not only are you not adding to landfills, you will be offering employment and opportunity to other neighbors in need.


Click here for items that Goodwill accepts, in good and usable condition. The link also explains items that Goodwill can't accept, whether it's mattresses or TVs. Mattresses can be recycled at PPL Industries, as explained in a previous post.

We want to make it clear that while Goodwill makes every effort to sell the items that are donated, we are aware that third parties are used for those items that don't sell in their stores. We could not verify what happens to the items after this point.
