WISCONSIN (SPECTRUM NEWS) -- Good news for those who have been waiting to get those donation boxes cleared out of the house. Goodwill is open for business across Wisconsin, they opened Friday and are already seeing thousands of donations. 

Shoppers and people dropping donations off will notice things are working a bit differently. 

Goodwill Vice President of retail operations, Skip Dexter, says “Its for your convenience and for your safety, its a contactless donation experience. So if you have a mini van full of goods, you can bring them to your local goodwill, you can stay in your vehicle if you like and a donation attendant will take them out and put them into a container. Or if you like you can take it and put it directly in the container yourself.”

Donations will be held for 72 hours where they will be inventoried and then go through a decontamination process. 

“When you’re shopping in our stores you're going to some familiar faces from the eyes up though cause we’re asking everyone to wear a mask, shoppers and employees,” says Dexter, "We have safer at work standards in place which we practice social distancing, you’ll see the plexiglass at the cash reps, you will see the fitting rooms only have every other one is open and after they are used we clean them and hold any product you try on for 72 in the back.”

Goodwill donation centers across Wisconsin are staying open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. seven days a week right now.
