To all the wonderful donors, please read carefully the following article for information on donating of usable items to us.
We have had an influx of unusable donations being given to us. Items have been arriving broken, dirty and not working. We try our best as volunteers to filter these items as donated, but can’t catch everything. These unsellable items cost us money to dispose of; we can’t recycle them any further.
You can help us out by only donating items that are clean, and are in working order, undamaged, smoke and odour free (musty), and clean clothing!
Please refrain from filling X-large bags or boxes that are extremely heavy to lift for our volunteers.
Please Do Not go through the donation Bin (Property of Russell Thrift Shop) and take items.
Please Do Not Use our garbage bin and rummage through garbage.
Please Do Not Use our Recycle Bin.
Please Do Not open Free Bags (In FREE BIN) and rummage through and scatter all over parking lot and other business property.
We encourage you to drop off donations during business hours, but are welcome to donate at your convenience.
We have many dedicated volunteers that put in long hours to keep our lovely Thrift Shop running so smoothly, so please co-operate and keep our store up and running.
A huge thank you to donors and shoppers from Russell and surrounding communities for your continued support!
President Noella Kiliwnik
and the Russell Thrift Shop Volunteers
