Donate Goods
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, free from stains, tears, and odors? 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 welcome the drop off of large furniture items—such as couches and dressers—at our loading dock during normal donation hours 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.
Small furniture items that can be carried by one person are eligible for our Free Donation Pick Up service. Pick up is limited to the Fox Chapel Area School District.
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. We limit our pickups to the Fox Chapel School District area.
Our driver will come anytime between the hours of 12pm—4pm. Please leave items outside and protected from the weather.
If you have more than 10 bags of donations or items that require more than one person to move, please bring them directly to our Community Thrift Store during donation hours. If you are outside of the Fox Chapel School District, please do not schedule a pickup.
Drop Off at Our Community Thrift Store
We welcome the drop off of large furniture items—such as couches and dressers—at our loading dock during our normal donation hours from 9am—12pm on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday only.
Please note that we do not accept armoires, china cabinets, large desks, mattresses, bed frames, headboards, or any oversized furniture.
Before bringing furniture to the store, we encourage you to give us a call at (412) 252-2364 or email photos of your items to info@second-harvest.com. We’d be happy to let you know whether we’re able to accept your donation and the best way to get it to us! Because our floor space is limited, we aren’t always able to accept every item.
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.

However you choose to donate, a little extra can go a long way toward keeping this community resource stocked and ready for anyone who needs it.
