What kinds of books can I set out for donation pickup in Atlanta?

Most gently used books are accepted - hardcovers, paperbacks, children's books, textbooks, and cookbooks. Books with heavy water damage, mold, or missing pages are harder to redistribute. When unsure, set them out and let your Local Pick-Up Partner sort through them.

How do I schedule a book donation pickup at my Atlanta home?

Schedule your free pickup online through the Give My Books Network. Pick your service day, place your books outside, and a Local Pick-Up Partner collects them from the curb. You do not need to be home.

What happens to my books after the Pick-Up Partner collects them?

After collection, your Local Pick-Up Partner sorts the items. Many books go directly to readers, schools, libraries, nonprofits, and community organizations across Atlanta. Some items may be resold to help keep the free pickup service running.

Does the Give My Books Network serve my ZIP code in Atlanta?

If a Local Pick-Up Partner is active in your area, you can schedule a pickup right away. If no partner currently serves your neighborhood, your request may still be fulfilled through the out-of-area pickup system.

Can Atlanta schools or nonprofits request donated books?

Yes, organizations in Atlanta can request books directly through the Give My Books Network program. Schools, libraries, community centers, and nonprofits can submit a request to receive donated titles.
