Volunteer to pick-up the used newspapers once weekly at their doorsteps. Provide an insight via flyers on what you did with the “donated” items. For example, monies collected from the sale goes to Charity A.
1. Give your neighbors some notice. Ideally, at least a week ahead of time, you should place notes in their mailboxes so they can save their papers for your drive.
2. Elderly people may be keen to help–but may not be comfortable carrying out a full box–you might question a family member if you can offer the option of a pick-up service. Maybe someone can drive you around to do pick ups.
Excellent luck!
