Frequently Asked Questions – Household Donations Maple Ridge, BC

Are seasonal household items accepted for donation?

Yes, seasonal items such as holiday decorations, outdoor décor, and kitchen accessories are welcome, provided they’re in good, resellable condition. Ensure these items are clean and properly packed.

Should I include manuals or original packaging for donated items?

While not required, donating items with original packaging or manuals can increase their resale value and benefit our programs. However, this is optional, and items can still be donated without these.

Can I donate items that require minor repairs?

We ask that all household items be in full working order, as we’re unable to repair items before resale. Items needing significant repairs or missing essential parts should not be donated.

Can my donation be picked up from a storage unit or workplace?

Yes, our pickup service can accommodate donations from alternative locations, such as storage units or workplaces in Maple Ridge. Please specify the exact address and any special instructions clearly when scheduling your pickup.

Do you provide bins or boxes for household item donations?

We don’t supply containers for donations; we recommend that donors use their sturdy boxes or bags. Clearly label your packages as household donations to streamline processing.

Please note: Donations are no longer accepted at Big Brothers Big Sisters offices.
