Where To Donate
 Public
donations are the lifeblood of Goodwill's retail operation.
We accept gently used clothing, furniture, housewares,
working electronics and many other items, then resell
them to help fund our employment, job training and
placement services for people with disabilities and
disadvantages. But there are some items we can't accept
because they are in disrepair or simply have no resale
value. Whenever you donate something that we can't
sell or recycle in some other way, we have to throw
it away. That costs money -- money we could have used
to help others get jobs. So thank you for donating
to Goodwill, and thanks for checking our Donation
Guidelines list for items we can't accept. You
may take your donations to the nearest Attended Donation
Center listed below. (Please note: We
do not accept disassembled fitness equipment or furniture.)

Home Pickups
Goodwill of Greater Washington provides a free pickup
service on a very limited basis. Due to the high transportation
costs in the Washington, DC metro area, we kindly
request that your donation be in the range of two
rooms of furniture (10 or more pieces of assembled,
unbroken and not severely damaged, stained or marked
furniture) or the equivalent of a small truck load
of household goods (12 or more large bags of clean,
unstained clothing). All pickups
by Goodwill of Greater Washington must be within the
Goodwill of Greater Washington service area (Alexandria,
Arlington, Annandale, Aspen Hill, Bethesda, Burke,
Chevy chase, Colesville, Crystal City, Dansville, Fairfax City,
Falls Church, Fran conia, Gaithersburg, Glenmont,
Germantown, Herndon, Lincoln Park, McLean, Montgomery Village, Newington,
Olney, Oakton, Potomac, Rockville, Rosslyn, Reston,
Silver Spring, Springfield, Sterling, Sterling Park, Tyson's Corner,
Wheaton, White Oak and, Washington DC). We
apologize if this causes you any inconvenience. Please
contact customer service at (202) 715-2633,
if you meet the requirements and would like a home
pickup.
Additionally, we ask that you allow up to two to
three weeks for a home pickup.
