Material Donations

Cleaning out your craft closet? Beyond financial support and volunteers, our creative reuse center needs material donations to make our wheels turn. We collect clean and reusable supplies from both businesses and individuals in order to get them back out into the hands of the creative community in Austin.

To date, we have diverted more than two million pounds of reusable materials from the landfill!

Take a look at our material donation procedures and the lists of what we can and can’t accept.
