Volunteer: 1B Storage Area Setup & Inventory

1B Storage Area Setup & Inventory Volunteer OpportunitiesDescription

Sharia’s Closet is preparing a new storage area to house organized clothing inventory. Volunteers are needed to help with two key phases of this project: preparing the physical space and organizing clothing into inventory. Upon arrival, volunteers will be assigned to one or both phases based on current needs and volunteer preference.


Moving - Space Preparation

Tasks include:

Clear Out Existing Space: Remove all items currently in the designated storage area, including old furniture, supplies, and any miscellaneous materials that are no longer needed.

Move Boxes of Clothing: Carefully relocate boxes of clothing out of the space to a temporary holding area. Boxes should be handled gently and stacked safely to avoid damage to contents or injury.

Clean the Space: Sweep, dust, and wipe down the area once it has been cleared. Ensure the space is clean and ready for shelving, bins, and other organizational materials.

Set Up Storage Infrastructure: Assemble and arrange shelving units, bins, labels, and other organizational systems as directed. Position items to allow for efficient access and a logical flow of inventory by size and type.

Clothing Organization & Inventory Input

Tasks include:

Sort by Type: Separate clothing into categories such as tops, bottoms, outerwear, undergarments, accessories, and other relevant groupings as directed.

Organize by Size: Within each clothing type, further organize items by size (e.g., XS, S, M, L, XL, 2X, 3X, etc.). Ensure sizing labels are clearly visible.

Quality Check: Inspect each item for stains, tears, missing buttons, broken zippers, or other damage. Set aside items that do not meet quality standards for review.

Input into Inventory: Enter each item into the inventory tracking system, recording details such as item type, size, color, condition, and storage location. Follow the data entry guidelines provided on-site.

Place in Designated Location: Once cataloged, neatly fold or hang each item and place it in its assigned spot within the new storage area. Ensure items are presentable and easy to locate.
