DONATE today to help the planet tomorrow
SUPPORTING SUSTAINABILITY
Donating reusable items is an important part of combating the environmental impact of producing and disposing of clothing, footwear, housewares, books, toys and more. Items we all use daily and are often no longer wanted long before their usefulness is done.
As a leader in the shift to Sustainable Fashion, we take the responsibility of managing reusable goods seriously. Whether we evaluate and resell in our stores, or ensure it is responsibly recycled, you can bring items to Talize and be confident that we do everything possible to extend the life of your donation.
Additionally, as a thank you for your contribution, you’ll receive a $5 off coupon to help you save even more on your next purchase.
ITEMS WE ACCEPT
CLOTHING
FASHION ACCESSORIES
SHOES
LINENS
BOOKS

HOUSEWARES
HOW TO DONATE
Donations can be dropped off at any time during store operating hours. Find the location closest to you.
Please place items in bags or other suitable containers and drop them off at the designated Donation Centre area at the store. When you ring the doorbell, a team member will quickly come to assist you with unloading your donations.
We have also partnered with Cornerstone to Recovery who have donation bins located across Ontario, if coming to our store isn’t possible you can do a postal code search to locate a bin near you.
Thank you for supporting Sustainable Fashion!
