The Wardrobe accepts donations of gently-used clothing and hard goods.  Donated items must be in salable condition.   For clothing, that means no stains, rips or tears. Clothing with missing buttons or broken zippers is also considered non-salable. Damp or moldy items and items with strong odors (i.e. smoke or animal urine) cannot be accepted.  

Household goods must be in working condition. Furniture with rips or stains or furniture that is worn, has broken springs or supports, etc. may not be accepted. Staff and volunteers have the right to inspect items for salability and to not accept any donated item due to condition, saleability or other reasons. Please do not be offended if your donation is not accepted. In order to keep costs down, we can only accept items we know we can sell. 

We accept holiday donations and seasonal items throughout the year, storing the holiday and seasonal products until it is the appropriate time of year to add them to the sales floor. This means we’ll take your Christmas decor in July and flip flops in December. 

Comprehend offers free bags of clothers to families who have been misplaced from their homes due to fire, flooding, etc.  Comprehend also provides clothing to children who are in need of clothes at no cost to the community organiztion.

Comprehend's Thrift Stores transform donations into revenue that is used as financial support for our essential services. Comprehend works alongside people to enhance lives through a continuum of essential services and — together with the community — champions positive social change.  

Comprehend's Thrift Stores are also committed to being good stewards of our environment. While sorting through donations, we separate the non-salable items that we can recycle. These include metal recycling and non-salable clothing. This also includes items that have not sold in our stores after a certain period of time. We partner with third-party vendors who accept these goods, providing an opportunity to keep millions of pounds of material out of landfills. 

Tax benefits for charitable contributions are available to taxpayers who itemize deductions. A receipt is provided at the time of donation; please retain your receipt. Comprehend, Inc. is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization.
