Please note that Safety is our #1 priority. This also extends to your personal property.

All items are subject to visual inspection.  Our on-site staff does reserve the right to refuse any donation if they identify it to be a risk to safety, due to spatial restrictions or due to condition.  (Any dumpster or waste cost would directly deter from the services we provide)   On donation pick ups, you can help us eliminate risk by ensuring that your donation is easily accessible and must be located in a garage or outdoors for pick-up. Donations from smoking or pet households are more likely to be denied on-site.
