and Goodwill are teaming up to use empty shipping boxes and get rid of the clutter filling homes with the

program.

After removing items from the Amazon box, a user fills it with clothes, accessories and other items you want to donate and then visits

to print a free shipping label. The box can be dropped off at the post office or UPS or picked up.

Donations go to the closest Goodwill participating in the

program.
