Items to Donate
We accept donations year round.
We just moved into a new larger warehouse to better serve you! This means we are in the process of getting everything ship shape and running smoothly. Use the easy and helpful form at the bottom of this page to request a donation pickup. We will have updated drop off instructions soon; for now just contact us at connect@theplantexchange.com to schedule a time to drop off.
Address: 11144 Golf Links Road, Oakland, CA. 94605 If you need a donation receipt, please let us know what you donated and when, and we will email you a receipt.
Indoor + Outdoor Plants
Don’t toss your unwanted garden supplies and plants, give them a new life through our plant donation and recycle program. Donations to The Plant Exchange are redistributed back into the community. We can accept donations large and small of both indoor and outdoor plants.
If you need a little help identifying plants we recommend using this website!

We also accept small furniture, kitchen items, artwork, home goods and office supplies to donate to other non-profit partners.
