The seasons are changing. Maybe you’re noticing there’s a heap of shirts, pants, or even jackets and sweaters you don’t wear (or fit into) anymore?
Here’s a few places to drop off the things that are cluttering your closet. Feel good while you ditch your hand-me-downs, because all these spots donate the clothes or sell them to fund their mission. (Note: Check each spot’s donation guidelines for what they accept before you go.)
Union Gospel Mission Thrift Store (Tigard)
Dropoff hours: Tuesday - Saturday, 10 a.m - 5 p.m.
Note: You can also schedule a pickup for large donations.
The thrift store also operates as a work therapy location.
William Temple House (Northwest)
Dropoff hours: Monday - Saturday (10 a.m. – 5:30 p.m.) and Sunday (11 a.m. - 5:30 p.m.).
Note: No kids' clothes are accepted. You can schedule a pickup for a fee.
The nonprofit provides food, counseling, clothing, and household items to people in need.
Plus, their thrift shop has reasonably priced used clothing if you need to replace the wardrobe you’re giving away. Proceeds from the store go to the nonprofit.
Goodwill: Portland Superstore (Central Eastside)
Dropoff hours: 10 a.m. - 8 p.m. daily. It’s a super-easy drive-through and less selective about what you drop off.
