Thank you for choosing to donate to More Than a Fad Thrift Store. 

Before you drop off your items, please check our handy list below of what donations we do and do not accept. Due to limited space, we can only accept donations at our Southside location. All items are then evenly distributed between both More Than a Fad locations.

Please bring all donations to the back door of 6936 68 Ave NW, Edmonton, AB T6B 3C5 on Tues, Thurs and Sat from 10 AM-2 PM.

 To drop off your donations, drive around the back of the warehouse to our donation bay (6936 - 68 Ave) and a volunteer will help you unload your items.

If you are donating furniture, please drive around back to 6932. For all other donations, our receiving bay is one door over, 6936. 

Please do not leave items outside donation hours, as we cannot use them if they have been left outside.
