Habitat ReStore Donations

The Habitat ReStore accepts new and used building-related materials from contractors, suppliers, individuals, remodelers and property managers. Most of these donations are offered to the general public to purchase at reduced prices at the Habitat ReStore.

ReStore to Recycle Electronics
The Habitat ReStore is accepting used electronics through a partnership with Vintage Tech Recyclers. Residents will now be able to recycle outdated and unwanted electronics, including televisions, computer monitors, etc. at the ReStore. For more information about our newest service, click here.

Steps to Donate to Habitat ReStore:

Step 1
When you have good, reusable or new materials, give us a call at (608) 661-2813. You will be asked for a description of the materials as well as your contact information. We prefer that donors include delivery of the materials to the store as part of their donation.

Step 2
Your call will be returned to determine if we are able to use your donation and to schedule a drop off time or collection time, if necessary.

Step 3
If the Habitat ReStore is picking up donated items, we will call the day before to confirm the pick-up. For the safest, most efficient pick-ups, please follow these guidelines:
* Have all materials available on ground level (i.e. garage or driveway)
* Please mark all items "Habitat ReStore"
* Absolutely no hazardous materials
* We are unable to haul away trash

As we are only able to accept reusable materials, our staff may have to decline some materials at the time of pickup. Please don't be angry or insulted by our screening process. Our goal is to parlay the proceeds of our sales into the construction of Habitat homes. If we take items we cannot sell, we end up simply being a storage facility or a repository for the dump.

Thank you for your support. Your donations may be tax deductible. A receipt acknowledging your donation will be given to you at the time of the donation. Your donation may be tax deductible, depending on your individual situation. Please consult a tax professional for more details.
