Donation Drop Checklist
Make donation day fast and drama-free: verify what’s accepted, pack by category, load your car in drop-off order, and grab a receipt.
Supplies
- Sturdy boxes/bags (closeable), labels/marker, tape
- Blanket or straps for trunk, hand wipes
- Item list for receipt, phone/camera for photos
- Small toolkit for removing wall hooks/screws
- Batteries to test electronics quickly
Quick Rules
Only clean, safe, working items. Pack like-with-like and label. Load the car in reverse drop order so unloading is easy. Always ask for a receipt.
1) Choose Location & Hours (10 min)
2) What They Accept (10–15 min)
3) Pre-Sort by Category (15–25 min)
4) Pack & Label (15–20 min)
5) Test & Safety Check (10–15 min)
6) Car Load Order (10–15 min)
7) Paperwork & Receipts (5–10 min)
8) Furniture & Large Items (optional)
9) Hazardous/Restricted Items
10) Post-Drop Reset (10 min)
Tip: Load the car the night before and park nose-out. Donation day becomes a fast errand on the next outing.
