Perth Charity Donations FAQ
What's the deal with Good Sammy?
Good Sammy is basically Perth's charity. Started back in 1958, they're a social enterprise that employs and trains people with disabilities. You'll spot their yellow bins in pretty much every shopping centre car park, and they've got 25 op shops scattered across the metro area. When you donate to Good Sammy, you're not just getting rid of stuff, you're funding actual jobs for West Australians who might otherwise struggle to find work.

Good Sammy does free home collections for furniture and bigger items, just call 1300 GOOD SAMMY to book. They can get pretty busy though, so don't leave it until the last minute if you're moving house. You can also drop bulky stuff off yourself at their furniture stores in Freo, Willetton, Balcatta, Midland, Mirrabooka, and Wanneroo. Salvos and Vinnies do pickups too, just ring your local store.
Where are the best op shops in Perth?
Fremantle's got a great op shop scene, very eclectic and worth a proper browse. The northern suburbs around Joondalup and Wanneroo have heaps of charity stores. If you're south of the river, Willetton and Cannington are good spots. And honestly, the Good Sammy stores themselves are worth checking out, they're proper shops, not just bins, and some of them have dedicated furniture sections.
What should I actually donate?
Clean clothes in good condition, always. Shoes, handbags, accessories, books, toys, games, homewares, all that stuff is welcome as long as it's not broken or stained. Perth charities also love bric-a-brac and small furniture. If you've got Containers for Change bottles, heaps of op shops have collection points now, so you can donate those too and the charity gets the 10 cents.
Why does it matter where I donate?
When you donate to WA charities like Good Sammy, the money stays here and supports locals. They employ hundreds of West Australians with disabilities, giving them proper jobs and training. That's not nothing. Plus your stuff gets resold right here in Perth rather than shipped overseas, which means someone in your own community gets to use it. It's a pretty good feeling knowing your old jacket might end up on someone who actually needed it.
