Much of the waste going to the Pitkin County Solid Waste Center includes perfectly usable items that could otherwise go to those who want or need them. By donating unwanted, gently used goods such as clothing, household items, books, and furniture, to the Motherlode Mercantile, you can easily get rid of stuff you no longer need and keep these items out of the landfill.

Remember, we can only accept goods that we can resell. Sometimes it is difficult to categorize unique donations, such as pianos, artwork, antiques, equipment, etc. so if you have an item you’d like to donate, but are unsure if we will accept it, please ask.
