Donating helps businesses:
All while supporting the vital work of non-profit organizations.
It’s a quick and easy way to keep products out of landfills and put them to meaningful use. Plus, you may qualify for a Federal income tax deduction worth up to twice your cost.
NAEIR accepts a wide range of products, including underperforming SKUs, discontinued models or colors, seconds, buybacks, returns, and other excess inventory—large or small, in almost any quantity.
Donated goods are distributed broadly across our membership base, which includes schools, churches, nonprofits, and teachers. NAEIR provides several membership options to meet different needs. Every donation received at our large warehouse is carefully tracked from the moment it arrives until it is delivered to our members. Impact reports are available upon request.
We’ve partnered with over 8,000 businesses across the U.S., including 3M, Newell, Avery Products, Cutter & Buck, Dixon Ticonderoga, McMaster-Carr, and Hallmark. Since 1977, we’ve handled over $4 billion in merchandise.
