We are strictly following our 3 box maximum rule and turning away any donations that we are not currently accepting. Please view the lists below before your appointment. We are under construction, and parking is limited. Please plan accordingly.

***

Walk-in Donations:

Thursdays 11am-4pm

(or until we are full for the day)

 All other donations are by appointment ONLY! 

Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday

If the donation calendar is blank, it means all appointments are currently full. Check back to see if someone cancels or if more spots open up.  

PLEASE NOTE: 

• Organize your items into boxes so we can see everything clearly when you drop them off. We can accept a MAXIMUM OF THREE BOXES per donation. Please ensure that boxes can close for easy stacking. We do NOT accept donations in bags or in containers that you need back.
• We are NOT accepting Christmas items at this time. Check back here for updates.
• Please review items we do and do not accept below. 

• When scheduling your appointment, provide us with a general list of what you will be donating in the notes section. 
• We will look through every donation to make sure we accept everything in it and reserve the right to reject any donations. The more organized your donation is, the faster we will be able to get you in and out, and the more helpful it will be for us. 
• To leave your donation on the sidewalk or in the store at any time without checking in with a SCRAP team member is considered dumping, regardless of the items. This hurts our organization, our neighborhood, and our community; and it's against the law.  
• We will give you a tax receipt and that good feeling that comes with supporting your local creative reuse nonprofit!

THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT!

Consider a financial donation to SCRAP to help us offset operational costs of processing your donation. Thanks for supporting SCRAP! 

Do you love that your donated materials skip the waste stream and make their way into creative hands? 

It costs SCRAP to divert all these usable materials and make them available to our community. Some of our customer's favorite items are processed at a financial loss to our organization. Consider donating to SCRAP to help us offset these costs. 

SCRAP collects clean and reusable art, craft, and office supplies. Please follow these steps when making a donation to SCRAP:

• Make sure we accept what you have. Check out the lists of: Items We Accept and Items We Don’t Accept.
• Organize your donation in a maximum of three boxes with lids. We sort through every donation to make sure we accept all materials presented and we reserve the right to reject any donations. The more organized your donation is, the faster we will be able to process!
