Before you drop off

• Wash clothes and check they’re in good shape; ripped or stained clothes cost charities money to dump.
• Drop off during opening hours. Goods left outside a closed shop often get rained on or taken.
• Most shops can’t take mattresses, cot and car seats (safety rules), broken electricals or large old TVs.
• Ring ahead for big furniture, or book a pickup where the charity offers one.
