Donate to the Restores

ReStores accept new and gently used renovation and building materials, and home décor items from retailers, manufacturers, contractors, renovators and the general public. Donations are welcome at both locations during their regular business hours. If you are able to drop-off your donation, please call your nearest ReStore to ensure your donation is suitable.

Are your items too LARGE for you to move? For a small donation we will pick them up! Call your nearest ReStore for more information.
