    Default AmVets helps my decluttering efforts!

    I love AmVets. Here they mail us a bag each month and the envelope has a date on the outside. On that date you place anything you want to donate in the bag (and others if needed) and put it at the end of your driveway. The drive through and pick it all up! Today I am putting out 5 bags of clothes, a bag of toys and a toy easel for pick up! This will surely help my decluttering!

    I love this, too. I've given a bag (plus a few boxes several times) every month this year but one, so far. Haven't gotten one recently though, and I could definitely use it!

    Wow, that's great! You are definitely donating a lot! How wonderful for the people that will benefit from your decluttering!

    I've never heard of AmVets...although, using my amazing powers of deduction, I'm guessing that it's American Veterans.

    The Kidney Foundation calls about once a month to see if we have anything. They pick up too. You might call your local Kidney Foundation and see if they pick up.
