I accept UFO, Roswell, and ufology donations across New Mexico with free pickup in the Albuquerque metro — the whole library: Roswell titles, abduction and contact literature, government-document and conspiracy books, classic ufology, magazines like FATE, and VHS/DVD documentaries. You don't sort or price anything. Bring it all: I check every book by hand, and readable copies go back to readers.
Published June 2026 · By Josh Eldred, New Mexico Literacy Project
Roswell is New Mexico, so UFO libraries turn up here more than almost anywhere — built over decades by believers, skeptics, and the merely curious, and usually a deep mix of paperbacks, hardcovers, magazines, and tapes. Most people clearing one just want it gone. That's exactly what I do: I take the whole library, free, and I check what's in it.
What I take: all of it
Roswell & the New Mexico cases
The Roswell Incident (Berlitz & Moore), the Randle and Schmitt investigations, Stanton Friedman's work, the Corso and "Day After Roswell" titles, the MJ-12 document books, and anything tied to the 1947 crash, the Plains of San Agustin, and the New Mexico sightings.
The wider ufology shelf
Abduction and contact literature (Communion and the Strieber books, the Hill case, Hopkins, Mack), classic ufology (Hynek, Vallée, Keyhoe), Project Blue Book material, crop-circle and ancient-astronaut titles, and the skeptic counter-literature too. Believer or debunker, I take both.
Magazines, documents & tapes
FATE and other magazine runs, newsletters, conference proceedings, photocopied document compilations, and VHS/DVD documentaries. The ephemera is often the interesting part.
Why bring the whole shelf
Donating takes one call or text: no research, no pricing, no listings, no shipping. Free pickup in the Albuquerque metro, or the covered 24/7 drop box outside the gate at 5445 Edith Blvd NE, any hour. I check every book by hand, readable copies go back to readers, and no readable book goes to the landfill. Here's where donations go.
How free pickup works
Call or text 505-250-3804 (or schedule online), tell me roughly how much there is and where you are, and I add you to the next route through your area. I come to you and load it all. I cover the Albuquerque metro and the surrounding area and handle whole-house and estate cleanouts regularly — the UFO shelf and everything around it in one trip.
Frequently asked questions
Where can I donate UFO and Roswell books in New Mexico?
Right here — free pickup in the Albuquerque metro for the whole library: Roswell, ufology, abduction lit, magazines, and documentaries. Call or text 505-250-3804.
Can I drop UFO and Roswell books off instead of waiting for a pickup?
Yes. The covered 24/7 drop box outside the gate at 5445 Edith Blvd NE takes them any hour, and someone is at the warehouse from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. to help unload a bigger load.
Magazines and documentaries too?
Yes — FATE and other magazines, newsletters, VHS/DVD documentaries, and document compilations. Just don't throw any of it out first.
