We continue to receive a high volume of donations at the Free Store, often more than we can process by closing time. Each day that we are open our volunteer staff will determine at what time they need to stop receiving donations for that day. We open at 9 a.m. The earlier you drop off your donations, the more likely it is we will be able to receive them. Thank you for your understanding and thank you for continuing to donate your items to the Free Store.
