we've been doing a big purge lately to make room for a nursery, and gave a bunch of clothes and old linens to Salvation Army because they do pick ups in our area.
does anyone have a lead, by chance, on where to donate old books?

Salvation Army. I go through the website to schedule a pickup time, so it's super convenient.

@nana87: I donate my old books to the used bookstore attached to my local library. Do you have a library near you? I'm sure they'd gladly take your old books!

Goodwill. I take my books to my local library's resell store.

@LalaYes: I love the DI!!!!
I take it to the DI. I used to take it to Savers, but after dishonest behaviors for them I am boycotting them. And the goodwill is like 20 minutes from me so DI it is!

I started to give away things on the parents board of my community.

The Humane Society's thrift shop. Goodwill has too many restrictions and yard sales are too much of a pain in the ass- I'd much rather write everything off!

Usually the children's hospital thrift store or purple heart. Or whatever organization leaves a bag on my door.

Goodwill, it's the most conveniently located.
@nana87: If you want to make money, I just heard you can send to Amazon for them to sell for you! Otherwise, your local library?

It used to be Goodwill, but with their recent bad PR, I might be rethinking this. There's a nice thrift shop at the Episcopal church not far from our house; I'll likely do drop offs there.

Salvation army. They have drive by drop offs near our house. No goodwill around here!
