Goodwill makes every effort to sell donated merchandise we receive at affordable prices in our retail stores. Merchandise that doesn’t sell in our stores is sent to the Goodwill Surplus Store, which offers “last stop” merchandise at low prices. Items that we cannot sell are processed through our recycling/salvage system. In the year of 2011-2012 Goodwill helped to keep 12.5 million pounds of items out of Hawaii’s landfills.

Goodwill is the original recycler…saving the earth one donation at a time.

Goodwill does not have a home pickup service. Check our list of conveniently located donation centers to find a location near you.

Yes. Whenever you donate to Goodwill you will receive a receipt acknowledging the date that Goodwill received your donation.

Some items cost more to transport, repair or refurbish than they can be sold for in our stores. Other items are not recyclable, contain hazardous materials or present potential liability issues. For these reasons, Goodwill cannot use the following types of items: any item recalled by the Consumer Product Safety Commission, hazardous materials, auto parts (including tires), baby furniture and other baby-related items, beds and mattress, major appliances, firearms and weapons.

Donations to Goodwill are re-sold in our retail stores. Revenues from our stores fund our programs that help people with disadvantages find jobs and reach their full potential.
