BeEncourage Upscale Resale — Bunkie in Bunkie, Louisiana is a physical donation or reuse resource for gently used clothing, shoes and accessories, purses and bags, stuffed animals, Bibles and faith-oriented books. The ministry asks donors not to bring stained, ripped, odorous or otherwise poor-condition goods and does not accept large furniture, electronics or used undergarments other than bras. Donations are accepted during store hours at the resale ministry locations; because the accepted categories are intentionally limited, executors should separate qualifying soft goods and books from the rest of an estate before visiting.

BeEncourage operates the resale ministry as part of its faith-based charitable work, using suitable donated items in a community resale setting. For an executor or family clearing an estate, this location may provide a reuse path for suitable property rather than disposal. Acceptance can change with storage capacity, condition, seasonal needs, safety rules, and resale or program demand, so confirm unusually large, fragile, upholstered, electrical, medical, or specialty items before transporting them.

Save a trip! Call BeEncourage Upscale Resale — Bunkie first to confirm hours and that they are accepting what you’re bringing.
