Request a New York pickup or call 845-461-3084.
Be specific about your New York location
Include your town or borough, street address and ZIP code. New York requests may involve Monsey and Rockland County, Brooklyn, the Bronx, Manhattan, Queens, Staten Island, Long Island or other communities. The exact address helps the team discuss the arrangements for your collection.
For more focused planning, see the New York service guide, Brooklyn guide or Long Island guide.
What to include in your request
Type of collection: home, shul or synagogue, school or yeshiva, or another organization.
Approximate quantity: boxes, pallets or truckloads. An estimate is enough to begin.
Storage location: the floor, room or building where the materials are kept.
Access details: stairs, elevators, loading areas, parking restrictions and any building rules.
Contact and timing: the person who can provide access and any preferred date or deadline.
Make building access part of the plan
If your building requires an elevator reservation or has limited loading access, mention that in the request. Explain whether boxes are in one place or spread across several floors or addresses. Confirm the practical details before moving materials or arranging for someone to wait for a pickup.
Organizing a larger collection
For a shul, school or community collection, choose one coordinator and estimate the total quantity. There is no quantity cap on the request form. Describe larger amounts clearly and discuss the plan before asking others to bring their Shaimos to a collection point.
Confirm drop-off before you travel
Call to discuss drop-off options, location and timing. A listed service area does not establish a walk-in collection point in each borough or town. The business address is 9 Dover Terrace, Monsey, NY 10952; call before visiting.
From request to collection
Send the collection details using the form or speak with the team by phone.
Confirm availability, pricing, timing and preparation instructions.
Prepare the materials as agreed and make sure the collection contact can provide access.
A submitted request does not reserve a pickup time. If you need guidance on whether a particular item requires genizah, ask your rabbi before including it.
