Board Game & Puzzle Donation Pickup in Fresno and Clovis

A game your family has finished can be a brand-new favorite for another.

Stacked board-game and jigsaw-puzzle boxes on a family table

Board games and puzzles have a long shelf life and an even longer play life. When yours are gathering dust, we collect them for free and send them to new players rather than letting a complete game sit unused.

We pass games and puzzles forward to families, classrooms, and community centers across Fresno and Clovis. Complete sets get the most play, so a game that still has all its pieces becomes a treasure for someone else.

This service is one part of the community donation collection program, available free to donors throughout Fresno and Clovis.

A complete game passed to new players shows the value of reusing games instead of letting them sit idle in line with the reuse-first approach the EPA recommends.

Games and puzzles we collect

Boxed board games, card games, and jigsaw puzzles all qualify, from quick children's games to big-box strategy titles. Complete sets get the most play, so games with all their pieces are ideal — if a piece or two is missing, let us know and we will do our best. Worn boxes are fine; play value matters more than packaging.

Adding games to your pickup

Box the games and puzzles with your books and media and set everything out on your scheduled day — no minimum, no cost. Tape loose boxes shut and bag small pieces so complete sets arrive ready to play.

Where games and puzzles go next

Donated games are passed forward to families, classrooms, and community centers across Fresno and Clovis, where they bring people together around a table again. Only sets too incomplete to enjoy are set aside.

What's included

  • Free pickup for board games and puzzles
  • Collected alongside books and other media
  • Contactless collection from your door
  • Redistribution to families and community centers

Perfect for families and game nights ready to share the fun.
