A Few Tips Before You Donate

A little preparation can make your donation more useful and make the process easier for everyone.

• Clean it first. Clothing should be clean and dry, and household items should be in reasonably good condition.
• Donate usable items. If something is broken, stained, badly damaged or missing important parts, it may be better suited for recycling or disposal.
• Check before you go. Donation policies, hours and current needs can change. A quick phone call or visit to the organization’s website can save you an unnecessary trip.
• Think beyond the closet. Shoes, purses, linens, books, small appliances, toys and household goods may also be accepted by local organizations.
• Keep electronics together. Include chargers, remotes, cables and other accessories when possible. They can make working electronics much more useful.
• Don’t Forget to Protect Your Personal Information. Before donating a computer, tablet, smartphone or other device that contains personal information, take a few minutes to protect your data. Back up anything you want to keep, sign out of your accounts, remove personal information and perform a factory reset when appropriate. For computers and storage devices, consider securely erasing the data rather than simply deleting files. And don’t forget to remove SIM cards, memory cards and accessories that you want to keep.

What About Electronics That Can’t Be Donated?

Not every electronic item is suitable for donation. If an old television, computer, printer or other device is broken or no longer useful, recycling may be a better choice.

The four Montgomery County Recycling Centers accept electronics for recycling, although fees may apply to some items. The facilities also accept batteries, appliances, bicycles, furniture and other materials.

Before taking anything to a recycling facility, check the current fee schedule and accepted-item list. Recycling rules can change, particularly for larger electronics and appliances.
