Clothesline Suggestions for Valuations

• Separate your clothing to be donated into higher priced and low cost items. The higher cost items mainly consist of expensive dress clothes such as men's and women's suits, dresses, evening gowns and coats.
• Check the prices of low cost items at a local thrift store, the Clothesline's Price List , or online at other valuation web sites. It is up to you to assign an exact value to each clothing item based on the condition and your research.
• Determine the value of more expensive donated clothing by checking on similar items for sale at quality consignment shops.  Keep notes in your tax file to support the value you decide to assign each item.
• Use Form 8283 from the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) website if the total value of non-cash contributions exceed $500 for the year. Complete the form and include it when filing your tax return.
