Goodwill is joining forces with Waste Management of North County and the City of Oceanside to reroute bulky items headed for the landfill to San Diego Goodwill’s Outlet Center as part of a month-long pilot program during May. green_building10981058XSmall “The CurbUp! program makes it simple and convenient for Oceanside residents to donate,” said Mike Rowan, CEO. “Each and every donation we receive is put to work. Our mission of getting people with disabilities and other barriers to jobs depends on it.” As part of the CurbUp! pilot program, Waste Management will pick up the items from Oceanside residents and deliver them to a North County Goodwill location. Bulky items include gently used couches, furniture, sporting equipment, and household goods. “We are thrilled to be joining forces with Goodwill Industries of San Diego County and the City of Oceanside to launch this pilot program,” said Daniel Butler, Municipal Relations Representative for Waste Management. “We share the same green roots and goals, and this program will allow us to further the reuse cycle by keeping materials out of our local landfills.” When you shop, donate or use Goodwill’s employment services, you are supporting its mission and the environment.
