With spring in full swing + winter well behind us, it’s time to say “out with the old.” Spring is the season of rebirth, so why not give new life to like-new or gently used items?
In the spirit of spring cleaning, we’ve rounded up a few Sacramento organizations that accept donated items, help locals in need + support community causes.
Large Hauls
If you’ve got a lot to give, like clothing, furniture, appliances, entertainment + toys, these organizations provide reused goods for those in need at affordable prices.
- The Salvation Army accepts car donations.
- The Society of St. Vincent De Paul, Sacramento Diocesan Council offers furniture pickups.
- Goodwill Sacramento Valley even has some technology recycling centers for bigger donations.
Clothing
- WEAVEWorks Recycled Fashion, part of the local nonprofit that helps survivors of domestic violence, sexual assault, and sex trafficking, has new + gently used clothes for women and men on its wish list.

Technology
