why cant i find a place to donate clothing?
it is really hard to find a place that accepts bags of clothing.
i have 6 bags! im considering just throwing them out at this point, but what a shame that would be. any suggestions! i dont have time to call and research anymore, i have so much to do still!
TIA

Just find one of those drop off boxes and bring them here. Most supermarkets and some train stations have them in the parking lots

Did you try good will? There's several locations that accept clothing donations and provide receipts.
Goodwill.org
Or you could leave the bags in your car & throw them into one of those parking lot bins whne you see one.

Re: why cant i find a place to donate clothing?
there are goodwill stores that accept clothes, some church thrift shops take them
The veterans used to leave tags on my door in oakdale for pickups on set days.
I think big brother big sisters picks up.
Maybe you can call your town hall & see if they have shelters that need clothing.
Those bin things are ok but 99% of that stuff gets sold by the pound & made in to rags or recycled & the charity only gets a fraction of the money & the clothes are destroyed.
Put them on Craigslist for free or freecycle.org there are regular people on LI that need clothes that will come pick them up from your doorstep-no donation receipt though but its better than throwing them out.
I give most of our stuff away through freecycle
