 ----------------------------------

We are so thankful that many of you have been asking what you can do to make the donation process easier for us. So here are some requests from our staff!

  ----------------------------------
  1. It helps so much if you are able to donate clothing that is already washed, and separated according to type and season (men's, women's, kid's, winter, summer, etc.)
  2. Please donate directly to our store's back warehouse doors any day (Monday to Sunday) between the hours of 10am-4pm (ring the doorbell, hold for 3+ seconds!).  When arriving at the store, please walk/drive through the gates at the back of the Double Take Customer Parking Lot into the YSM Staff Parking Lot. Once you are inside the YSM Staff Parking Lot you will see a garage door on your left. Press and hold the doorbell button (for 3+ seconds!) and one of our warehouse staff or volunteers will come to assist you.
    Attention: You must see a warehouse staff member or volunteer when bringing donations. Please don’t dump and run. Due to theft and damage, donations left outside likely won’t make it to the sales floor.
  3. If you are unable to make it to the back warehouse doors during donation hours, please email doubletake@ysm.ca and we will try to accommodate you!
  4. Consider signing up as a volunteer to see firsthand our processes and to multiply your giving!
  ----------------------------------

If you have items to donate and you're not sure if we take them, please inquire at doubletake@ysm.ca
