There are many places locally that you can go to get great shirts, slacks and jeans at discounted prices. Most of these locations are second hand stores that take in gently used items and help others have access to these great clothes. Nearly all clothing donation Hanover PA locations will give you a receipt for your donated items, to use on your taxes as well.

There are many middle and lower class families that are still dealing with the after effects of the downturn of the economy, so obtaining brand named clothing could be out of their budget. To still look nice, it is less costly to get these pieces used. The prices at the used stores reflect their status and let families afford to buy a decent wardrobe on little money.

Many women are changing over to capsule wardrobes, where there are maybe a skirt and dress as well as four sets of bottoms. A total of about four tops with a sweater and jacket allow for dressing any outfit up. Adding in vintage pieces like what could be located in these used stores makes it easy to locate these pieces and helps them be more affordable than in a vintage store.

If your closet needs sprucing up for the season changes or the attic or basement needs extra space, you can donate clothes to get that space back. You gain the room again while looking through your old duds. It's always nice to get into a bag and find a great jacket you stopped wearing because it went out of style, and knowing you can start wearing it again due to styles constantly changing.

Young workers are big customers at these used clothes stores, as they want to look good at school or work but have limited means. This too goes for young families just starting out with small children. Regardless of the style of the clothes or the age group they belong to, there is someone that could use your discarded closet treasures.

Most stores ask for you to wash and dry the pieces before you bring them in. It doesn't mean they're perfect and unstained and pristine, but just means they have to be clean without mold or dry rotting issues. You can bag them and take them to a store cashier, or leave them in drop bins found around town.

A few have trucks available to collect your donated bags, if you contact them and let them know when it will be available for pick up. Most require that you schedule this ahead of time, so they are able to make one trip in conjunction with other donors in your area of town. If you want a receipt, you can request one be given when pick up takes place.

Tax credits are given on federal forms for all donations in Hanover, PA and the state forms also have calculations for this. Without a receipt you can ask to claim up to a six hundred dollars worth of donated items each year. To get details on your tax situation and donating, speak with an accountant.
