Habitat for Humanity of Northern

Donate Building Materials, Furniture, Appliances

Whether you have overstock, surplus, discontinued product lines, display materials, or are involved in remodeling projects where reusable materials are being replaced with new, we may want it! Habitat for Humanity is a 501(c)3 charity, so donations are tax deductible.

We ask for your cooperation in donating only materials that are truly reusable. Please understand that if we feel that we cannot sell an item, we reserve the right to decline the donation, so that ReStore profits are used to build homes, and not pay for disposal fees.

The list of what we can and cannot accept changes, depending on current inventory and sales. Please always call ahead before bringing materials to ReStore (847-742-9905).

Drop Off Time

We encourage you to bring your donations to ReStore anytime during our store hours. Do not leave items outside ReStore when we are closed. Please call the ReStore with any questions in regards to donations at (847) 742-9905 Wed-Sat. We reserve the right to refuse any donation for any reason, please call ahead before donating.
