Donation Value Guide

How much can you deduct for the gently used goods you donate to Goodwill? The IRS allows you to deduct fair market value of used items – in gently used condition. The quality of the item when new, and its age must be considered, but it must be in good condition to allow a deduction.

Below is a list of what items generally sell for at Goodwill Locations. To determine the value of an item not on this list, it is suggested that using 30% of the item’s original price reflects its fair market value. We can provide a receipt on which you can document the value of your donation.
