Honestly, it's not to make more work for you or for us. Here are 4 good reasons why (and sign up is very quick):

1. We need to have contact and location information so we can match donors near recipients since quickest / cheapest pick ups are in the same geographical area.
   
   
2. We need to have donors on record as responsible for the release of posted items.
   
   
3. We need to have nonprofits on record as responsible for accepting donations in return for tax-deductible receipts.
   
   
4. Our goal is to make reuse, redistribution, and recycling habitual and convenient. Just as regular utility services promote habitual sanitation practices. You can use this once or all year long. It's up to you.
