State Regulations mandate guidelines for donated mattresses; therefore, all

donated mattresses must first be checked by the Shop Directors! Acceptable mattresses:

 (1) Must be clean! This means, no rips or stains.  (2) Must be under 10 years old.

Since the Shop Directors are NOT on site after 5:00 P.M. on weekdays, on Saturdays or

Sundays, mattresses may NOT be left on those days! Your car license plate number may

be given to authorities, if this rule is broken. Please do not disrespect 2nd Chance by

“dumping” your unwanted mattresses; your cooperation is appreciated.
