Where can I donate clothing/household goods on STT?

Leaving island in less than a month and have been going through the mounds of accumulated stuff we have acquired in the last two and a half years. I find myself with a pile of perfectly good items that I just don't want to keep hauling around with me anymore. I'd like to donate it all to a thrift store, perhaps the Humane Society or another charity. I'm looking for directions from, say, Red Hook, and hours that they accept donations.

Thanks for your suggestions in advance!

Eventually, some things we will be selling, too. A printer, a queen-sixed sleep number bed, a dvd and a flat-screen Panasonic tv. PM if you are interested in any of those.

We had a blast, but now it's time to move on to the next adventure...this was so much fun that we are going to do the same thing in Maui!

The new Humane Society shelter and thrift shop is across the street from Market Square East (CostULess/cinema, etc.) and I'm sure they'd be delighted to accept whatever you need to get rid of! You can give them a call at 775-0599. All the best with the move and have fun on Maui!

I am not sure of location either but they are in the phone book. Tel. 776-3966
In fact if you look on page 42 of the phone book, there's a whole list of Community/Non Profits that can guide you.

I believe the Family Resource Center closed its thrift shop -- I don't know if they are still taking donations. https://vimovingcenter.com/talk/read.php?4,87924,200449#msg-200449 -- there's a link there to their Facebook page announcing the closure.

The easiest thing is the drop box for the Salvation Army. There is one in front of the Cost-U-Less store as well as a freestanding one on back street behind the Salvation Army.

Thanks, all! I stopped by with my large box this afternoon at the Humane Society.
