On Friday, December 14th before 4pm in the metro DC area, our team will arrange pick-ups of your gently used outwear (coats, hats, scarves, gloves).

Additionally, between now and Dec. 14, you can drop your outerwear off at our Dupont Circle office (1875 Connecticut Ave NW) – just reach out to let us know when you’ll be dropping by, and we’ll come grab them from you.

The Capital Weather Gang reports:

“A snowier than average result for the first time since 2015-2016
