I have NOT had first-hand experience with all of the above groups. If you have
any feedback for me, good or bad, I would appreciate hearing from you! Please
feel free to suggest additional charities or businesses that I can add to this list.
All of the charities, stores and services listed here have web-sites. They are
easily findable by searching on redto.com or yellowpages.ca.
My next wrangling pamphlet will also contain some tips on how to reduce
clutter, reuse what you have and recycle the rest!
