Where Can I Drop Off Clothes Donations?
Donating unwanted clothes is a great way to benefit those who need it most. If you have any gently-used clothing items, you can donate them easily. Here are some popular locations that accept clothes donations.
Thrift Shops and Charitable Organizations
Most thrift stores, like Goodwill and Salvation Army, have designated drop-off boxes at their retail locations. Donations are accepted on a daily basis; however, hours of drop off may vary.
Charitable organizations, such as local churches, homeless shelters, and charities, also accept clothing donations. You may find the location closest to you by searching online or calling local charities.
Consignment Shops
Some consignment shops only accept items for donation on certain days of the week. If you want to donate items to a consignment shop, make sure to call ahead and check their hours of acceptances.
Other Places to Donate
Other locations you can drop off clothes donations include:
- Secondhand stores such as those run by The Arc, which supports individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities.
- Homeless shelters, which often have specifically designated donations drop off.
- Animal shelters that accept donations of clothes for people and pets.
Remember, donating clothes benefits many people in need. You can make a difference just by taking a few minutes to drop off your used clothing!
