Tips for property managers/owners in IRB

  • Put a Vacation Donations magnet on your refrigerator and/or stickers on trash cans. (Ask us for free ones!) While you’re at it, spread the word to your fellow property owners/managers!
  • If you use a digital information kiosk for guests, include info on Vacation Donations (we’ll even send you a graphic).
  • Use your check-in/checkout info to share the Vacation Donations website and concept. Here’s an example: “Have leftover food or items you can’t take back home? Consider donating them! The IRB resource Vacation Donations tells you how and where, and you take it from there. Go to vacationdonations.org for details. If you ask us, we’ll donate for you!”

Vacation Donations tells you how and where, and you take it from there. If you ask us, we’ll donate for you!” Personalize to fit your own needs.
  • If your guests leave unused items behind, please take the time to give them away for reuse. That includes food, toys, books, and more. Even better, consider holding your own occasional, seasonal or year-round food/item drives, especially if you’re in a condo building with a lobby!
  • If you are unable to donate items yourself, try to contract with your cleaner to donate food and items. Don't expect them to do this as part of their regular job. Remember that you are making the profits from your rental business, so the task ultimately is your responsibility.
  • When you have damaged towels, blankets and sheets, please donate them to local animal shelters or vets.
