Donate

The success of the Morris Habitat ReStore is dependent upon the willingness of many individuals and corporations to donate excess building materials, furnishings and appliances. We welcome all offers, but we reserve the right to refuse unsuitable donations. Please contact us to see if your donation falls within our guidelines and meets our current needs. If we are unable to accept your items, you may contact the other donation centers listed at the bottom of this page.

Pick-up of donations: We may be able to arrange to pick up your items in our truck.

Tax deductible: Most donations are tax deductible. We will give you a receipt for tax purposes.

Attention corporate donors: Do you have slow-moving or obsolete inventory? Donate, don’t dispose! Avoid the costs of trash disposal and hauling while taking advantage of tax deductions for your contributions.
