Donation Policy
St. Vincent de Paul accepts gently used items that ARE NOT IN NEED OF REPAIR as we no longer repair furniture or electronics. For the safety of our employees we can only go to the front entrance of a home or business, and all glass and sharp objects must be placed in boxes. Our drivers have the right to refuse items if their value will not aid in our mission to serve those in need.
Due to the current outbreak of bed bugs, we cannot accept used mattresses, box springs, sleeper sofas, or futons. All items must be clean and free of stains and tears. Electronic items and appliances must be in working order.
