STEPHEN ILOTT - CHARITY, DONATION LINKS AND INFORMATION

Often my clients want to donate possessions, things big and small that others can use and are in good condition. This can include clothes, computers, beds, dressers, chairs, desks, electronics, toys, books, even food. If you need help email me for advice. I often help get givers and takers and act as go-between for safety. Sometimes the imperative of a move dictates things such as furniture must go quickly. I work to get it gone asap. I will try to connect the client with a taker. I don't just pick up if you need an instant out. So plan ahead.

If you have stuff you want to get rid of perhaps there are folks who could use them now. You need only be connected.

I also direct lists and photos to individuals or charities.

Email me for the list of items available and available for pick up. I will connect takers with givers - first come first serve and you must have a vehicle sufficient for the task and assistance to move the item. (No names or contact information will be posted openly otherwise to ensure privacy).

Preference will be given to those who will use the items themselves as opposed to people wishing to resell. If you are a charity that resells to raise funds that is fine with me. I will use my judgement on this point. People interested in any item must be able to view the item, decide and pick up it up in a timely manner with appropriate help and transportation. I cannot and will deliver it.

If you need an item contact me and you'll be on my list when free things come up. If you have a particular need such as metal or wood or boxes or glass or even specific wants such as children's clothing or car parts please send me a list. It helps my clients, it helps you - everyone wins. Recycling at its best.
