What Can You Donate In Marietta?
At America’s Thrift Stores in Marietta, we accept a wide variety of items that reflect the diverse needs of the communities we support. You are welcome to donate gently used clothing, accessories, furniture, household goods, electronics, and toys. For more details on what to donate, please visit our website: What to donate.
Clothing Donations
America’s Thrift invites donations of a broad selection of clothing and accessories for men, women, and children. This includes seasonal wear, formal attire, and everyday clothes that may no longer suit your style or size. Your donations help clothe individuals and families in need, with the condition of cleanliness and good repair making them immediately beneficial.
Furniture Donations
Donating furniture is vital in assisting households beginning anew or those in need. Items such as sofas, tables, bed frames, and chairs not only help turn a house into a home but also support our community directly. Additionally, donating these items helps the environment by extending their usable life.
Household Goods Donations
We also welcome donations of kitchenware, decorative items, and small appliances. Such items help make a house functional and welcoming. To ensure they are immediately useful, please donate goods that are in working order and clean.
Electronics And Kids Toys Donations
Your donations of gently used electronics—like smartphones and gaming consoles—and toys not only entertain but also provide educational value to those who might not afford new items. These donations greatly enrich the lives of recipients by offering access to technology and fun learning experiences.
