Donations
Merchandise donations of items we carry are accepted at any time we're open. If you have an unusual item to donate, please call first to inquire whether we can accept it. May we ask that donated merchandise be clean (we have only a tiny sink) and in usable condition or working order. From time to time we may be overstocked on some things (i.e., books, records) and are unable to accept more of the same.

Direct donations by check may be mailed to us at any time at the address below.

If requested, tax-deductible receipts, to the extent allowed by law, are given for saleable merchandise. A list of donated goods must accompany the donation if a receipt is requested.

  • Clothing of any kind
  • Shoes
  • Hats
  • Suitcases
  • Furniture
  • Baby items
  • Draperies

  • Window shades
