Thank you for the information. I have plenty of boxes to fill since I just moved.

What a great idea! I have a warm quilt (Puffy silky but needs repair). Maybe someone could use this or some older towels, etc.

Mine are all broken down and at the curb for the recycle truck.

Great idea! We recycle everything here (they pick up at that curb weekly). So our boxes, plastic, papers, etc all get recycled. (Electronics have to be taken to a place). We do donate clothing to Goodwill though 2X a year, (and yes we put the clothes in a box), but we drive it to the nearest city to donate right at a Goodwill store.

@Marp Thanks, for a great suggestion. I here a Goodwill near me.

We put boxes in our community's recycled bins. Easy. As for goodwill, we drop things off at a goodwill store. Why mail it?

I reuse them, put Salvation Army donations in those that are a bit beat up, or they get recycled.

Because not everyone has a Goodwill store nearby.

And I thought I'd found a way to get rid that mountain of shipping boxes I have. It sounds like a worthy program but it won't help me because I don't have anything to donate. Certainly not enough to fill up a whole lot of boxes. I do that on a regular basis and I donate locally. So, my boxes will be with me until I can figure something out.
