I don't know if this is a symptom of "too much" or not, but I phoned the Sally Ann yesterday to donate a bunch of clothes and some furniture and was told "we don't do pickups anymore -- you can drop it off if you like". They didn't care -- they didn't want it.
So I phoned the Goodwill and was told they'll only pick up the furniture and only if "it's real nice and there is a lot of it". It's a charitable donation for crying out loud. I don't have a warehouse full of new furniture to give away but I did have some perfectly useful stuff to give them but they didn't want to bother with it.
Can't blame them I guess. If they had a use or space for the stuff I suppose they'd come and get it.
