Donate Goods
Your donations of new or like-new items become dollars that are reinvested to create opportunity, nourish our neighbors, and build community.
With a little preparation, you can help us turn your donated goods into community good.
Get started today:
Is it in excellent condition? Does it come from a smoke-free home? Would someone else find it useful or valuable? If yes, it would make a great donation!
If you’re not sure, check out our list of acceptable donations. If we can’t accept your item, consider other locations that might.
Sorting your items by type (clothing, books, electronics, etc) and labeling your boxes/bags saves time for our team. The gift of your quality items, and your time to sort and send only your best, helps maximize the impact of your donation.
We accept donations at our store loading dock (just past our entrance) from 9am -12pm on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday ONLY. We cannot accept donation drop offs in the afternoons, on weekends, or when we are closed.
In order to offer this free service, we can only accept small items that are light enough for one person to easily lift and carry. If you have more than 10 bags of items, or anything that requires more than one person to move, please request a Furniture Pick Up.
Our driver will come anytime between the hours of 9am-2pm. Please leave items outside and protected from the weather.
We welcome donated furniture and larger household items and offer a pick up service for a fee of $50. Furniture Pick Ups happen within a three hour window:
Please note that the driver will leave items that we cannot accept or are in poor condition.
If you have valuable items like watches, fine jewelry, handbags, designer clothing, or fine art, please contact our Research and Online Sales Specialist. Our specialist will determine the best place to sell your items – whether in-store or online – so we can extract the most cash value and reinvest those dollars back into our stores and community.
Giving comes in many forms – not just goods. Second Harvest runs on donations of your time, monetary contributions, and nutritious food.

While meeting material and relational needs is why we exist, neighbors like you are the how behind these critical programs.
Give your time, support local families, and experience the joy of building community—side by side.
Our free fridge runs on community generosity. Take action to help neighbors meet their food needs with dignity and anonymity.

June is already off to a delicious start – and we’re just getting started!

Take a look at what’s on the menu this month, and make plans to stop by soon ☀️
Who will you rally?
The Community Full Fridge Relay was designed for groups to participate together.
Whether it’s your coworkers, family, faith community, sports team, neighbors, or a group of friends, adopting the Community Free Fridge at Second Harvest for a week is a simple way to turn shared values into visible action.
A meaningful summer activity for families. Team-building with purpose. A chance for faith communities, clubs, and neighborhood groups to make an impact together.
During your adopted week, your group commits to stopping by at least once to help clean, stock, and care for the Community Free Fridge before passing the baton to the next team.
One group. One week. One less empty fridge.

Happy National Cheese Day!
We put together a little board with a few things you’ll find around the market right now. Starting with @belgioiosocheese cheeses, @delallofoods olives, petite pickles, breadsticks & banana peppers. Some local honey, fresh and dried fruit, almonds from @bestevergranola, pita chips from @pitas_pieces, and a spoonful of lemon curd for something sweet.
If you’re putting together a snack board, heading to a gathering, or just looking for something good to nibble on, we’ve got plenty of ingredients to mix and match.

Welcome to Check It Out with Chuck.
We’re starting a new series, where he shares some of the interesting secondhand finds that make their way through the store.
As a longtime woodworking hobbyist, he’s quick to notice the details that others might miss. This particular piece stood out for its quality craftsmanship, and a little digging helped uncover clues about its maker and the time period it came from.
That’s one of the things we love about secondhand goods—there’s always something new to learn. Next time you’re browsing, take a closer look. You never know what story a piece might have to tell.
