Why Choose Pickup Please?
While other major charity organizations may require weeks in advance to schedule a pickup or have stopped offering the service altogether, Pickup Please can often pick up your donation within 24 hours in many areas. Your donations are sold to private companies by annual bid, generating the majority of the funding to support the local, state, and national programs of the Vietnam Veterans of America.
