donation guidelinesCapodimonte Bowl

Clothing – New or gently used clothing (Men, Women, Children), accessories and shoes are welcomed. Please – no clothing that needs to be cleaned, repaired or is stained. Clothing without size tags is especially hard to sell. It would be very helpful to put sizes on the things you donate.

Furniture – Used furniture in decent shape, tables, desks, bookcases, chairs, some upholstered items (if clean and intact). Vintage or unique items are happily accepted. Please no sofa beds, furniture in need of repair, no press board or rickety items. Remember, if we can’t sell it, we have to throw it away and trash disposal is a very high cost for the shop.

Electronics – Televisions (especially with their remotes), DVD, VCR players are great donations if they are in good working order. Some newer microwaves, boom boxes, and other every day electronics are OK but remember, WE CAN’T REPAIR THINGS.
PLEASE DON’T GIVE US COMPUTERS, PRINTERS OR FAX MACHINES. NOBODY BUYS THEM!
