Your merchandise donations are vital to Impact's continued success. To further assist us, please read the list below for items we cannot accept, and for condition requirements for those items we do accept. As always, your continued support—along with cooperation with these guidelines—will enable Impact Thrift to be even more effective in the future.
**The enforcement of the Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act (CPSIA) on Feb, 10, 2009, has prohibited Impact Thrift from selling toys and certain other items meant for children 12 and under. For additional information, visit the government website at http://www.cpsc.gov/about/cpsia/cpsia.html.
Merchandise donations are gratefully accepted at any of our store locations, Monday–Saturday between 8:30am and 5pm. Please drop off the donations at the designated drop off area located on the side of the building in Montgomeryville and Hatboro, or behind the building in Norristown.
We ask that you place clothing, bed linens, and table linens in large plastic bags. Please place your other donations in boxes that have lids or are able to be closed. This enables your donated items to stay clean, dry, and secure on our trucks and in our warehouses. Please wrap/secure all cords to lamps and small appliances.
We offer free pick up service for items that are too large and/or too heavy to fit in your car. Call 215-957-6131 to schedule a pick up, or submit your request to our scheduling department at scheduling@impactthrift.org.

A collection drive can be a fun neighborhood, school, church, synagogue, or corporate event. Impact Thrift Stores are stocked 100% with donated items. It takes a lot of donations to fill our stores and keep them full. Collection drives are an easy way to get people involved and collect a truck full of donations at the same time. These are fun family, neighborhood, and community events, and often involve more than just dropping off a donation. One supporter hosted a winter donation drive in her neighborhood and invited all of her neighbors over to enjoy hot chocolate and fellowship after dropping off their donations. Use this opportunity to piggy-back another event, such as a Girl Scout cookie sale or a Boy Scout popcorn drive. Others have gotten local businesses to participate by donating free donuts or coupons to all those who come and bring a donation. The possibilities are endless!
