HOW THIS WORKS
The easy way to do so much good
1
Choose your favorite charity.
2
Select a suitable date for pickup.
3
Set your donations outside by 7:30 am for free donation pickup all over Chicago.
Your donation will be picked up at no cost, and you’ll get a tax deduction. Plus, you’ll enjoy the gratification of helping out the less fortunate in Chicago with your gently used clothing, shoe and item donations.
HOW DO MY DONATIONS BENEFIT PEOPLE?
It’s liberating to declutter your home and donate those perfectly usable items, like slightly worn clothing, clean shoes, small household appliances, and other home goods to people who can benefit from them. But it’s even more fulfilling to know that DonateStuff.com will pick up your clothing and item donations and distribute them around Chicago without charge, channeling your kindness into aiding Chicago nonprofits that truly transform the lives of so many.
As you schedule your Chicago donation pickup online, you’ll be prompted to choose which charity your donation will support:
AMVETS
Illinois AMVETS (American Veterans), standing as America’s most encompassing Congressionally-chartered veterans service association, represents the interests of 20 million veterans. DonateStuff is proud to stand alongside AMVETS in supporting services for veterans and their families through your clothing and item donations in Chicago. AMVETS supports veterans of all military branches including Vietnam Veterans in Illinois.
Illinois AMVETS is not affiliated with VVA, Vietnam Veterans or PickupPlease.org.
WHERE TO DONATE IN CHICAGOLAND
The Best Chicago drop off location – Is your front door!
DonateStuff makes it easy for residents of greater Chicagoland to turn stuff they don’t need into a good deed. Just place your gently used household items and clothing at your front door. We’ll pick them up and they’ll provide valuable support to Illinois AMVETS.
