  • Once you’ve gathered all the items you wish to donate in Douglasville – AKS accepts used clothing and a variety of household items – make a list cataloguing each item before packing it in bags or boxes.

  • Note the condition of each item, especially if you’re donating antiques, collectibles, or vintage items.

  • Some donors choose to take photos of their donated items so that they have an accurate record of the condition of the items at the time of donation.

  • Use the AKS online valuation guide to estimate the value of your items given their current condition. AKS does not estimate the value of donations.

  • Request a free donation pickup for your items, or bring them to any of the conveniently located donation locations throughout Douglasville and the surrounding areas.
