Value Village Isn't Helping

First just a quick update for those who want to know. My husband got the job he wanted. He flies back to NY on Wednesday to start the job. I will finish packing and then we will start our roadtrip on July 24th.

So yesterday we sold a bunch of books to a used bookstore and made some decent money. However, as always is the case, a bunch were refused. We stopped off at Value Village to donate them. We had them in a milk crate that we want to keep. The guy said he needed them in a container though. So we got out a cardboard box for him to use. We started to transfer them ourselves, but then he said, "here, this is easier," and he just dumped them in. The books fell onto each other with pages opening and creasing and a book cover getting completely crumpled.

THAT'S NOT THE WAY TO TREAT BOOKS! EVEN ONES YOU DON'T WANT!!!

It would be great if we could just donate all our stuff in one place, but it's thanks to disrespect like that that I feel the need to take the time to be choosy about where formerly loved objects go.

Any advice on passing on old dolls and stuffed animals?
