Non-Acceptable Donation Items

We hate to say “no thank you” to a donation. However, items that cannot be used, must be disposed of or recycled. This raises our costs and impacts the programs and services we provide to people with epilepsy.

 

Please dispose of your non-acceptable items through an alternative responsible resource, such as your local recycling center. If your item is found to be non- acceptable, the driver will leave behind the item and a slip with the reason why it was not accepted.

 

Ahead of your scheduled donation pickup, please review the our list of non-acceptable items below! Our list of acceptable donation items is available here.
