Accepted list. Donors get extra love for pre-sorting their items before drop-off: clothing in one bag; shoes and accessories in another; household items in a third; electrical and e-waste in another; books get their own bag, too. If you have jewelry, it’s helpful to put it in a small, individual bag so nothing gets lost. Electronics list. We process, repair or recycle parts from damaged electronics for resale through our Goodwill retail store locations and online marketplaces. Any items that do not pass our multi-point rigorous testing will be responsibly recycled with our certified R2 and e-steward certified recycling partner.
