About Us

 
Legal restrictions prevent us from accepting some items.  Also, we have limited storage capacity and may be unable to receive overstocked items.  If we are unable to accept your donation, ask us for a list of other donation and disposal centers that may be able to assist you.

When in doubt, call our donation desk at  330-1950  to talk with a staff member about your donation.

Obtain a receipt from a staff member when you donate your items.  Store restrictions and legal obligations do not allow us to place a value on your donated items.  Feel free to fill out the receipt and place values on your items for tax deduction purposes.

For the safest, most efficient pick ups, please follow these guidelines:

  • Have all materials stacked and easily accessible
  • Please mark all items "ReStore"
  • Absolutely no hazardous materials
  • We are unable to haul away trash
  • Appliances must be outside or in garage (no basements)

As we are only able to accept reusable materials, our staff may have to decline some materials at the time of pick up.
