Collecting Gently Used Items

The Environmental Defenders of McHenry County will be taking donations of gently used items for their upcoming spring garage sale from Saturday, May 21 through Wednesday, May 25, 11 am until 3 pm, at the Algonquin Township Road District garage, 3702 U.S. Route 14, between Crystal Lake and Cary.

 (On-site Directions--drive straight back to the last garage on the right).

What type of things will be accepted? Just about anything that is re-sellable, with a few exceptions: small appliances & electronics must be in working order, no monitors or TVs, no clothes, no baby carriers or cribs, no large appliances. Not sure if they’ll take it? Call the office at 815-338-0393 Monday through Thursday, or email mcdef@owc.net.

The garage sale runs Thursday, May 26th through Saturday, May 28th from 8am until 3pm.
