Items Accepted

Items must be completely cleaned out and uninstalled (when applicable) before we pick them up.  Our driver always has the final right of refusal for any donated items, and can decline to accept an item at the pickup location.

To schedule a free donation pickup please call the ReStore at 215-739-9300 or email restore@habitatphiladelphia.org. If you are able to email photos of the items you wish to donate, that greatly expedites the scheduling process!
