WHAT WE CAN and
CANNOT ACCEPT
at the ATASCADERO Shop
​where we do our processing

Items that simply do not sell are broken, chipped, cracked, damaged, dirty, odorous, scratched, worn-out, stained, torn, wet, moldy, rusty, frayed, disassembled or incomplete. Items that have spent numerous seasons exposed to pet hair or the elements. Items that have survived a month of garage sales. We are forced to haul items like these to the dump, which is costly and wasteful, and takes away funds from our quarterly disbursements to charities.
