    With all the ways people are saving money these days, there are many places to donate clothing. And one of the easiest ways to donate is through clothing drives. Clothing drives are one of the most common ways for people to donate their unwanted or unneeded clothing. In some areas such as the Washington DC metropolitan area, the United States military will pick up some of the clothing. There are many other places around the country where you can go to donate your gently used clothing. Some examples are local thrift stores, nursing homes, and schools.

    Some churches will also hold clothing donations for their congregation. The Red Cross will also accept donations of gently used clothing. All of these places have a designated person in charge of collecting and donating the clothes. It is important that when you donate that you call ahead to find out the exact place that they get their donations. Many places will already have a collection area, where people can pick up their donations.

    Other places that you might consider donating your gently used clothing to places like planet aid. Planet Aid has a website where you can find all of the information you need to know about their clothing drives. At the website you will find all of the different ways that a person can donate their gently used clothes.

    The most popular way that people choose to donate clothes is to use the website eBay. eBay has a section where people can post their ads about clothing items for sale. All you have to do is put a description of the items that you are selling. When Agency interested in your items sees your ad, then they can go online and search for the clothing items that you are selling.

    Another way that you can go about donating clothes to the thrift store is to use a drop-off center. Most people who drop off clothing items at these centers are people who are living on the streets or in shelters. These people will sell any old clothing or item to anyone who will buy it. You can easily find a drop-off center near you by searching online. You will then need to make sure that you go to the drop-off location to collect your clothing items.

    Some people choose to donate their gently used clothes to charity instead of putting them up for sale. A tax deduction can be received for any kind of clothing items that you decide to donate to charity. This is also a great way to help out those who are less fortunate than you. Each year the government receives millions of dollars in tax deductions for donating clothing items.

    If you would rather donate your gently used clothes to charity, then you should keep in mind that a charity only accepts new clothes that are in good condition. Your gently used clothes will not be accepted if they are in bad condition. Also another thing to keep in mind, is that any household items that are donated to charity must be washed and dried before they are available for donation. In addition to this, any clothing items that are in good condition and that have not been worn through washing will also not be accepted.

    So now you know a little bit more about donating old clothes to help someone in your community. There are Agency for you to choose from. You can choose to donate your gently used clothes or household appliances. Your local Red Cross or Goodwill Industries will be able to help you find a place that accepts your particular type of donation.
