Why Donate Excess Inventory?
Excess, overstock, discontinued, or surplus products can create real costs for manufacturers, distributors, and retailers. Donating usable inventory gives those products a productive destination while helping meet an ongoing community need.
- Reduce warehousing, handling, and disposal needs
- Keep usable products from going to waste
- Put discontinued or surplus inventory to productive use
- Support corporate community-impact and sustainability goals
- Receive donation documentation for corporate records
- Work with an organization equipped to receive pallet and truckload quantities
Giving the Basics helps make the process straightforward, from determining whether your inventory is a good fit to coordinating receiving and next steps.

Turn Excess Inventory Into Community Impact
Usable products that no longer fit your normal sales or distribution channels can still serve an important purpose. Giving the Basics helps redirect excess hygiene and household inventory to schools and community organizations that need a reliable supply of everyday essentials.
Products such as soap, shampoo, deodorant, toothpaste, feminine care items, and laundry detergent are necessities, yet many families struggle to afford them because these items are not covered by SNAP or WIC.
By donating excess inventory, your company can reduce waste while helping essential products reach children, adults, and families throughout the community.
A Practical Alternative to Storage, Liquidation, or Disposal
When usable inventory no longer fits your normal sales plan, donation can provide a straightforward alternative to continuing to store, discount, liquidate, or dispose of those products.
Giving the Basics works with companies to redirect eligible hygiene and household products into an established distribution network where they can be put to immediate use.
- Reduce ongoing storage and handling needs
- Keep usable products from going to waste
- Give discontinued or surplus inventory a productive destination
- Support sustainability and community-impact goals
- Move large quantities through a nonprofit equipped for pallet and truckload donations
Our Product Procurement team can review your inventory, help determine whether it is a good fit, and coordinate receiving and next steps.
