Goodwill does not accept
16 years ago
Goodwill Does Not Accept:
Used mattresses
Animals
Soiled garments or linens
Very worn furniture
The dead
YES
PLEASE DO NOT DONATE THE REMAINS OF YOUR (less than) LOVED ONES TO GOODWILL
Today we received the ashes of a man inside of a cardboard box.
What's worse was that said box was thrown into a dumpster before it was rescued.
Now we have to contact the fucking morgue so they can relocate the next of kin.
I don't know why it was donated. Hopefully not for any malicious reason. The morgue will safely store it if the next of kin is not located.
But please.
Goodwill does not accept human remains.
This also goes for that asshole who donated a bag of human teeth. UGH FUCK YOU.

Occasionally we get urns that were donated on accident. Like, people move out of their homes and accidentally leave the urn then the new owners are like DOOP TIME TO GIVE THIS TO GOODWILL. There are also cases of malicious people donating urns to goodwill out of spite. Like, someone stealing someones fathers urn to piss them off. Yeah, it's rare, but it happens.
Goodwill always gives the urn to a local morgue where they will try to identify whom the urn belongs to, and if they can't do that they have storage for it.
that's messed up!
And a box is pretty cheap. At least Walter got a coffee tin for Donny.
WHAT
You don't accept mattresses?
AND DON'T DUMP THEM OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT EITHER I WILL HUNT YOU DOWN YOU MOTHERFUCKER
The new urban plague
I would have kept that shit. Made a necklace or used them for witchcraft.
Just like hey dust dust lint dust OH AN OLD TOOTH WITH A FILLING
AND ANOTHER
OH AND ANOTHER
OH GOD WHY
I don't suppose that will be the last "special" donation you get.
Also, EWW
FOILED AGAIN!
put that under a pillow and you're rollin in the dollas
That was an awful place and I am glad I quit.
This week someone put a bag in. She saw her coworkers jump back, and one of them told her someone left her a present.
Who the fuck throws a dead bat in a bag in an kid's charity drive bin (that is inside a store where people could see you do this?!)
okay that definitely beats the used vibrator I saw somebody try to donate once
What is wrong with people?
unrelated, when i worked at value village, someone took a big shit in the donation bin. :C
