Donations Wish List

Please be advised we do NOT need coffee pots, couches, large furniture, or indoor chairs at this time. Please do not donate dirty, stained, or torn clothing. We also do not take used mattresses because we have a source of free new mattresses. These items cost us money to take to the dump.
