Donation Guidelines for Thrift Store Donations

Thank you for your donation!  Donations to CRRC help support the Food Pantry, the Recreation Center, Senior Center and various other activities and educational programs for adults and children in the Canyon Lake area.  

If you’d like to help us out, PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING GUIDELINES so that you can help us in our mission to support the food pantry and other programs at CRRC:

Donation Area: Please drop off all donations at the wooden tables outside in front of the barn and a barn staff member will be happy to assist you. Please do not bring donations into the store.

Donations Hours: Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday 10am-2pm

Please . . . No After Hours Donations!

CRRC has very limited storage space and therefore must manage its donations carefully. Donations must be made during hours of operations only. Leaving donations before or after hours does not assist us, or our mission, and in addition it is illegal, violating a county ordinance.

Condition of items:  All donated items should be in good, clean, sellable condition.  Examples: Furniture should have no stains, rips, or broken parts. Dishes should be washed; clothing should be washed, folded and bagged (if possible) in plastic bags; and all other items should be otherwise clean and hygienic so that our staff & volunteers handling the items can work in a clean and safe environment.  Due to the escalating cost of disposal, liability issues and new laws governing the resale of certain items we reserve the right to refuse a donation if the items are not in good or sellable clean condition. 

Pickups/Delivery: Unfortunately, we are unable to assist with daily pickup of items for donation. Pickups can sometimes be arranged with a week or two notice.
We can only offer this on an as available basis.

Clothing:  All clothing donated should be washed, folded, and bagged.  Please do not bring clothing on hangers for this doubles our volunteers work load.
