MAINE — Goodwill Northern New England now offers donation pick-ups, thanks to a new partnership with ReSupply. The partnership will begin in the Greater Portland, Maine area and expand in the coming weeks.

“Getting to a donation center can be difficult for some folks, especially if they have large, bulky items like furniture,” said Goodwill’s Director of Logistics Rick Mooney. “Our goal is to make donating easier and more accessible for our communities by offering donation pickups.”

ReSupply offers a fee-based pickup service to donors and in turn provides that donation to Goodwill. Goodwill does not take any part of the pick-up fee. Any items Goodwill cannot take ReSupply will then take to other charities to further help keep items from ending up in landfills.

Goodwill stores and donation centers will always remain a free option for donating clothing and household items. 

ReSupply will initially serve folks surrounding these stores: Biddeford, South Portland (Maine Mall), Gorham, Westbrook, Falmouth, Windham, Topsham and Brunswick.

“We hope our donors find value in this alternative donating option,” Mooney said. “If it’s not your cup of tea, our donation specialists are ready for you at our stores.”

Visit goodwillnne.org/donate/ or call (361) 264-1467 to schedule a donation pickup. ReSupply will reach out to coordinate the pickup within 24-48 hours.
