Donate Work Clothes in Albuquerque — Suits, Scrubs, Uniforms
Clean, wearable suits, scrubs, uniforms, and work boots can go in my covered 24/7 drop box outside the gate at 5445 Edith Blvd NE, Unit A, any hour, no appointment. Someone is at the warehouse from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. daily to help carry a big load in, and if the box is full, text 505-250-3804. For a whole closet, I pick up free across the Albuquerque metro, scheduled by route. I'm Josh with the New Mexico Literacy Project: the old scrubs, the interview suit, and the company polo from two jobs ago can all go in one trip.
Why Professional Clothing Matters
A suit for a job interview. Scrubs for a first nursing clinical. Steel-toe boots for a warehouse position. These aren't luxuries — they're requirements. And for people re-entering the workforce, leaving shelters, or starting over, the cost of proper work attire is a real barrier.
I sort every piece by hand at the warehouse. Wearable work clothes are resold or passed on through secondhand channels, where a decent blazer or a spare set of scrubs costs far less than new, and that is how they reach the next person who needs them.
Request Your Free Pickup
Tell me what you have and where it is. I’m the only person who shows up — I do the lifting, no sorting on your end. Tell me your timeline and I’ll do my best to work with it. Texts go straight to my phone at 505-250-3804.
Prefer to drop off? Open 24/7.

Who Benefits From Your Work Clothes
Job Seekers
A suit that fits can be the difference in an interview, and a secondhand one puts it within reach.
Healthcare Students
Nursing and CNA students need several sets of scrubs for clinicals; clean used sets stretch a tight budget.
Trade Workers
Steel-toe boots and safety gear are expensive. Workers entering construction, warehouse, and service jobs benefit from donated work footwear and safety equipment.
Drop-Off Option
Suits, scrubs, and uniforms can come to 5445 Edith Blvd NE, Albuquerque, NM 87107 day or night. Look for the covered, waterproof box outside the gate, out by the road; bag the clothes so they stay together. Between 8 a.m. and 3 p.m. someone at the warehouse can help you carry things in. Box full? Text 505-250-3804 instead of leaving anything by the box.
Your Old Work Clothes Can Change Someone's Career
That suit, those scrubs, those boots — someone can wear them next. Drop them in the 24/7 box, or text or call me for free pickup across the Albuquerque metro.
