HOST A DRIVE
Host a Collection Drive
Why host a drive?
Organizing a collection drive at your business, school, church, or organization is a meaningful and sustainable way to connect no-longer-needed gently-used items to neighbors in need of household items. See what good your goods can do!
Here’s how it works, in a nutshell:
- Choose a focus for your drive from our menu of options:
- pillows
- pots & pans
- kitchen items
- bed and bath items
- small household items

Getting Started
There are a few ways you can run your drive.
- Self Set-Up: You set up the drive yourself and drop your donations at one of our Warehouses at your convenience.
- Borrow Our Bins: Coordinate a time to pick up bins for your drive from one of our Warehouses. Full bins can be dropped off and swapped with empty bins with advance notice to our Outreach Coordinator.
- Community Warehouse Set-Up: We’ll bring up to 6 bins to your location and pick up items weekly throughout the drive. Suggested donation for this service is $25 for a two-week drive and $50 for a 4-week drive.
For questions, or to coordinate bin pickup or dropoff, email Outreach Coordinator Dryden Driggers at dryden@communitywarehouse.org.
You can also host a virtual drive through Amazon Wishlist.
