Accepting Item Donations

You may bring donations to Likke or to Mini-Likke in Rusko during opening times.

See the contact information here.

We can also come and pick up the largest items and loads for a charge. Read more about the pick up service (in Finnish).

Please note that textiles are collected separately. Likke has two trolleys, one for packed usable textiles in sealed plastic bags, and one for textile waste. The trolleys are located in the lobby of the rightmost building in Likke’s yard. Read more about textile waste collection.
