Arc's Blue Bins ~ Clothing Only Donation Drop Boxes

Feel Great, donate! We Especially need clothing!

Your donations allow Arc’s Used Goods Pickup Service to support Arc’s mission: To secure for all people with intellectual and developmental disabilities and their families the opportunity to realize their goals of where and how they live, learn, work and play. By donating your gently used and new items to Arc, you are helping to change attitudes, change policies and change lives for thousands of people in our community.

Thank You for Choosing Arc Greater Twin Cities!

Our Great Blue Trucks roll five days a week, all year-round. To find out when we will be in your neighborhood, just log-in and create a password. We’ll create a confidential donation account.

Once scheduled for a pickup, you will receive an e-mail reminder one day prior to your pickup. Every 4-6 weeks, an email notification of the next scheduled pickup date for your neighborhood will be sent to you with the option to donate again. There is never any obligation, just a great feeling when you donate to Arc.

Arc’s online scheduler is a convenient way to find out about the blue trucks pickup schedule - and reminders are automatic. A complete record of your donation history will be at your fingertips and you can even print your own tax receipts.

You can drop off your cloth donations at one of Arc's Blue Bins too! Just click on the picture or the Arc's Blue Bin link below for a map of bin locations or click here.

Donations collected by Arc’s Used Goods Pickup Service are not resold at Arc’s Value Village Thrift Stores, but are sold to a for-profit purchaser. The proceeds generated from the sale of your donations are an excellent source of support for Arc’s programs and services. If you have additional questions, please give us a call at 612-866-8820.

Donations must be in good condition in order to claim a tax deduction. By law, it is the donor’s responsibility to define the condition and value. A professional appraisal is required on deductions exceeding $500 per item for your tax records.
