Donate Gently Used Clothes and Household Supplies with Give Back Box

Before you recycle all your Amazon boxes from holiday shopping, check out Give Back Box, a nonprofit organization that helps you donate unwanted household items, such as gently used clothing, shoes etc.. You can make a major difference in the life of another person.

How it works:

1. After unpacking your merchandise from an online order. Print a prepaid shipping label at givebackbox.com/works. Each shipping label costs $15.
2. Fill your box with clothing and household goods you no longer need.
3. Attach the pre-paid shipping label provided to the box and ship as usual

It’s that easy!  This is such a great way to declutter your house after the holiday season and to safely donate your items to help someone else in need. 

An estimated 11 million tons of clothing, footwear, towels, bedding, and other textiles end up in U.S. landfills every year. Additionally, online shopping is the preferred method of buying (especially now more than ever due to the pandemic). In hopes to reuse boxes from online retailers and give clothing, toys, and household items new homes to people in need, Give Back Box was created to help. 

Give Back Box has partnered with retailers such as Amazon, Newegg, JCPenney, Fanatics, Stitch Fix, and Nordstrom. You can use boxes from their partners, or any cardboard box you find. 

When you donate, you can choose your own charity. Choose from charities for children, women, homeless, animals, or people with disabilities.  This makes giving away your own items so much more meaningful than dropping them off at a local secondhand store. And if your town doesn’t have a second hand store, you can still donate your unwanted items!
