Hi,

Question here for our residents Supply experts!

Doing some cleanup at my place right now. I have quite a bit of old DEU dress shirts/pants that I don't wear anymore (original sizing from basic training days). I ordered several new pieces of DEU gear on Logistik Unikorps throughout the years. I assume that supply doesn't keep a count on what we get thru Logistik, so basically I have more than what's on my docs.

How do I get rid of old (but clean) shirts and pants? Can I drop that stuff at charity, or base supply gather the stuff for cadets? Is there regs against throwing those items in the garbage?
 
Hey Delavan,

Admittedly it's been a few years sense I worked clothing stores but if my recollection is correct your DEU items are no longer returned through the CFSS.  I would suggest donating them to a local schools drama dept or the Sally Ann.

Halifax Tar has ir; they are no longer returned nor should they be on your docs.  Just make sure that you remove all rank insignia etc before donating/trashing.
 
Another option is to donate them to a museum.  Although museum collections can get rather large, sometimes they do need items for temporary displays that can be discarded after and not deplete/destroy their artifacts.

Thanks for asking that question, I've often wondered myself how to do this.  :salute:
