Items We Do and Don't Accept
Don't Just Recycle Your Unwanted Items. Donate to Goodwill to Help Put People to Work.
Donations Today, Jobs Tomorrow
We appreciate the generosity of our donors. When you donate gently used items to Goodwill of North Georgia, you make a difference in peopleās lives, strengthen communities, and create a healthier environment. Every donation, big or small, supports our mission of putting North Georgians to work.
Why We Can't Accept All Items
Although we hate to turn away donations, there are some items we simply cannot accept. If an item is damaged or we can't sell it, we have to spend money to dispose of it. Money that otherwise could have been used to support local job seekers. Please consider this when choosing which items to donate.
