Question by Belly: Ex-spouse refuses to get personal belongings. Where can I make donations for money in chicago, Il?Please help?
I’ve been advising my ex-spouse to come and get his belongings for over three months now. He refuses and told me to throw them out. He left behind a lot of nice clothing, shoes even some very untacted furniture and appliances. Please help me in finding a location in Chicago IL or Chicagoland suburbs?

Donate his stuff to Salvation Army.

Call Goodwill, they’re in the phone book.
Just Google it because most places will only take in donations.
But I would recommend that you get this in writing. You ex can always come back on you and say that you refused to allow him to pick up his belongings and destroyed them. So get it in writing that he refuses to pick up his things and that it is up to you as what to do with them.
C.Y.A baby!
Have a garage sale, or list the items on craigslist.
You better have a signed statement from him it is ok to dispose of his property however.
Do you have it in writing from him that you should throw out his things? If not, I’d try to at least get an email from him saying that you should do so.
Send a registered and certified letter to him stating that if he does not pick up his belonging, at a time that is convenient to you, within 30 days, you will treat them as abandoned and will dispose of them. Do it this way so that he cannot come back in the future and say that he did not know.
