Before you drop off
- Wash clothes and check they’re in good shape; ripped or stained clothes cost charities money to dump.
- Drop off during opening hours. Goods left outside a closed shop often get rained on or taken.
- Most shops can’t take mattresses, cot and car seats (safety rules), broken electricals or large old TVs.
- Ring ahead for big furniture, or book a pickup where the charity offers one.
