I just filled my smallish size box and printed my label.

The return address that printed out on the label was: Give Back Box, 152 Harrison St., My city, my state & my zip. There is not a Harrison St where I live. Have you had this happen? Taking the box to ups tomorrow & hoping that they don't question it.

When I did my sign up, I entered my zip code and it showed me the address of Goodwill in a town near ours. (Maybe a processing center)

Did you get the option to have UPS pick it up from you?

It sounds like you won't have any trouble.

I'd like to know how it goes for you❤️❤

I did have the option of having them pick it up, but I live very close to one of their shipping terminals. I did fill in my home address & zip. I live in upstate NY & this pkg. is going to PA!! Lol

I just dropped off my GBB....An older gentleman ahead of me wanted to ship his duffel bag containing his golf clubs to FL and the UPS agent told him that they couldn't insure them because they weren't in a box & he was having a fit. She looked at me & asked if my box was prepared, I said yes & she told me to just leave it on the counter. So I got outta there without a hitch!!

Thanks for heads up on this great idea!

So glad it was quick and easy for you!

I figure when one signs up and gives their address, the label prints out with the closest donation center.

Making it quick and easy for us ensures that the program will be used. This is a great deal in our situation...
