Between November 1 and December 8 please consider making a gift to Colorado Gives Day.

Aspen Thrift Shop receives donations by the bagful, all thanks to the generosity of our community. We sell what we can, within the limits of our available space. But what happens to the rest?

Our castoffs go into the trailer in the alley. Once full, donations are transferred to a larger trailer and transported down valley to a semi-truck. When full, the semi heads to New Horizons Thrift Stores, with locations in Cañon City, Pueblo, and Colorado Springs. Their mission is to provide quality, affordable merchandise, promote sustainability, and share hope with families impacted by chronic imprisonment.

We’re grateful that items we cannot sell or don’t have room for can be responsibly recycled rather than sent to the Pitkin County landfill. However, responsible recycling comes at a significant cost. We receive a small payment for each load sent to New Horizons, but our expenses—including fuel, hauling, vehicle maintenance, and trailer parking —add up quickly. We believe responsible recycling is worth the expense and is an important part of our mission, but we want our donors to understand the costs involved.

So, the next time you drop off a bag full of goodies, take one more look. Ask yourself: Would I buy this item secondhand? Thoughtful donations help us reduce waste, make the most of our resources, and continue serving our community.

See list and directions below.

Please drop donated goods behind the store in the alley between Hopkins Avenue & Main Street during store hours only.

All items need to be in good condition, clean, unstained with no rips, have all parts present and in sellable condition, please!
