Donate your curtains to the Wellington Curtain Bank

The Wellington Curtain Bank upcycles preloved curtains and gives them to low-income families in the Wellington Region.

We desperately need donations of good quality, mould-free curtains to continue helping families in need. Can you help?

We take:

  • Good quality, mould-free curtains

  • Fabric rolls or large offcuts of fabric

  • Tracks and hooks

We don’t take:

  • Dirty, sun-damaged or mouldy curtains

  • Any type of blinds

  • Netting

Not sure what we accept? Watch the video below, give us a call or flick us an email.

Got Donations?

You can drop them off to any of these locations:

Please note- if you’re dropping off curtain tracks, please drop them off directly to us. None of our partners have the capacity to accept curtain tracks.
