Goodwill collects clothing and household items, saving them from
landfills
Items not sold go to Goodwill Outlets and “as
is” Stores for sale
Items not sold at Outlet Stores are
baled and sold after-market
Recyclable materials are sorted and sent
to become new products Donated items are
sold in Goodwill Retail Stores

The “ideal” Textile
Clean Dry Free of hazardous materials or waste
**NOTE** Goodwill accepts items that are torn, have mild
stains (paint, grass, etc), linens, towels, wash cloths, and everyday household textiles

The “not so ideal” Textile
Items described as “RAGS” Items described as “SOILED” Items that are wet or have a strong odor
**KEY POINT** If it isn’t a TV or a CRT there is a 99.99% chance
Goodwill accepts it!
