Donate your unwanted stuff!
We're always in need of various items around the rescue. If you're doing some spring cleaning and have items to get rid of, check with us before throwing them out! We might just need what you don't want!
Below are examples of items we could use. This list isn't all-encompassing, though. Give us a call if you have items you want to donate!
For Fall/Winter 2019, here is a list of items we could really use.
Below are examples of items we could use. This list isn't all-encompassing, though. Give us a call if you have items you want to donate!
- Building materials
- Medical supplies
- Pet supplies
- Tubs and totes
- Pond supplies
- Gardening and outdoor supplies
- Tools
- Blankets and insulating wraps
- Stock tanks or IBC totes
- Greenhouse supplies
- Fencing
- Livestock/Farm items
- Boats and fishing equipment (nets, etc.)
- Deck boxes or other waterproof outdoor storage
- Portable sheds and/or shed materials
For Fall/Winter 2019, here is a list of items we could really use.
- Treated lumber - we can use any outdoor, treated lumber, but we would particularly appreciate 4x4's, 2x4's, 1x4's, or deckboards. We plan to start constructing 10-15 new box turtle enclosures during the slower winter months. This will likely cost $2000-$3000 in lumber alone. Any donated lumber would be greatly appreciated.
- A good, used, flat bottom boat, with trailer if possible. One with a motor would be ideal, but these beggars are not choosers. Obviously, this would be for water rescues (turtles caught on trot lines, etc.)
- Sheds and/or deck boxes. Over the years, we've given up our spare bedrooms, bathrooms, closets, and outdoor storage to make way for housing turtles. Now all our tools and supplies have nowhere to go. We could really use some waterproof outdoor storage like small sheds and/or deck boxes.
- Fencing. We're hoping to build a fence around the perimeter of our property to deter unwanted visitors or wayward pets, that we can also electrify to keep predators out. We could use any and all fence boards, posts, electrical wire, chargers, controllers, etc.
Thank You!
