Salvation Army Partnership

Salvation Army

At 505-Junk, we pride ourselves on keeping reusable materials out of the landfill while helping our members of the community as much as possible. Our goal for 2023 is to keep thousands of pounds of clothing out of the landfill. To help us with that, we have partnered with the Salvation Army to collect reusable clothing from our clients. 

Add Bagged Clothing to Your Pickup

When you schedule a regular junk removal pickup, you can now add an unlimited number of bagged reusable clothing to your load at no charge. This gives you a chance to regain your closet space and also saves you a trip to the thrift store… a win-win for everyone! Simply mention this when you schedule your pick up with our office by phone at (604) 505-5865 or online.

505-Junk Donation Truck

All of the clothing donated from our clients will be taken to the Salvation Army with our 505-Junk Donation Truck. At the Salvation Army, the clothing is sorted and washed for further distribution to Thrift Stores. If any clothing pieces are considered non-reusable by the Salvation Army Team, the item will be recycled as textiles and kept out of the landfill. 

Salvation Army

Help us reach our 2023 goal of keeping thousands of pounds of clothing out of our local landfill. We challenge you to clean out your closet before your next junk removal pickup. 

To launch our partnership, we recently hosted a clothing drive fundraiser at the South Delta Rec Centre. Hundreds of residents attended to donate clothing, which helped fundraise for our Movember campaign as well as fundraise for our flood relief victims in the Fraser Valley. In total, over $2,000 was fundraised to support mental health awareness and cancer research, and 4,635 pounds of clothing was donated.
