Furniture
With room limited at the depot it is not possible to store furniture although the depot is often asked if there is furniture available. To accommodate the need for furniture the depot will take names and numbers of people wanting to release furniture and inform persons looking for furniture. The individuals involved can arrange for pickup and delivery.
Drop Off
Clothes can be dropped off when the depot is open or placed in the outdoor receptacle beside the entrance. The depot does have some storage space for out of season clothes, but if convenient summer clothes can be dropped off just after Christmas and winter clothes in September.
Reach the Clothing Depot
The depot will be closing mid June so now is the time to pass on summer clothes that the family has outgrown but still in good shape. The need is always present and any help you can give is greatly appreciated. The number to reach the clothing depot is 506-657-3150.
