Residential Donations

Why choose the ReStore?

We keep items out of the landfill, giving them their second life. Revenue generated by the ReStores contributes to Habitat HMD’s mission of building strength, stability and independence through affordable housing for local families.

How to make a ReStore donation

Donation Drop-Offs

You can drop off your donations at any of our ReStore locations (Burlington, Milton, Mississauga, and Orangeville). Donations valued at $300 or more are eligible for a charitable tax receipt. Additionally, all donors will receive a 20% off coupon for their next ReStore purchase. Drop-offs are welcome Monday through Saturday from 10:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m., and on Sundays from 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m

Residential Pick-Up

For donations with a resale value of $1,000 or more, you may qualify for Habitat’s Free Residential Pick-Up Service from your garage or driveway. To request a pick-up, please complete our online request form. Our knowledgeable ReStore team will evaluate your donation. Please note that, due to high transportation costs, ReStore personnel reserve the right to decline pick-ups for donations valued below $1,000.

Reduce, Reuse, ReStore

Everything available at ReStores has been donated by members of the community or local businesses. Whether you’re planning to declutter your home, downsizing or moving, our ReStores can help. Your donation will help support local families, instead of ending up in the landfill.
