Spring cleaning is the perfect opportunity to start fresh! Going through your closets, your basement and garage while you put away the sweaters, boots, skis and shovels and pull out the shorts, sandals and lawn tools gives you a chance to sort through it all! Keeping what you use, storing what you need for next year and clearing out what you don’t!
While we offer clean new spaces to store everything from boxes and beds to boats, you can still give your gently used clothing, furniture, and household items that you no longer need a second life. Fortunately, the Glens Falls and Queensbury area is home to many outstanding organizations that accept donations and directly support local families and community programs throughout Warren County.
