Visions Video is asking for your donations of your unused or unwanted films to help build our inventory!
We gladly accept *almost any* donations of commercially issued DVDs or blu-rays as long as they are in working condition, and have their cases and artwork.
All donated items become the property of Visions Video, and we reserve the right to sell, trade, recycle, or dispose of items as needed. Every effort is made to use every donation to the benefit of Visions Video’s ever-expanding library of films from all over the world.
Once we’ve been able to process donations we will begin to assemble a “want list” of titles. If there’s something you’d like to see at the store, let us know!
How to Donate Discs:
- If you would like to ship a donation of working DVDs and blu-rays to us, please email visions.video.wmass@gmail.com to arrange your donation.
- If you live in Western Massachusetts it’s likely we can arrange a pick up or drop off, again, email us or message us on social media to arrange.
- Drop off hours at pop-up locations will be announced soon.
Other Donation Questions and Info
- While we happily take any DVDs and blu-rays in working condition that still have their cases and artwork, including absorbing full collections that meet this criteria, if you prefer we are also happy to look over lists or pics of potential donations and indicate which items we could most use.
- If you have VHS tapes that you feel certain would be of use to Visions Video, please email us to discuss. While our general policy is not to accept VHS donations due to the increased storage space and limited demand of this format, we do sometimes make exceptions for titles that were never issued on DVD.
- We can prepare donation-recognition receipts on request for large donations of physical media. These forms require us to estimate the value of the donation, so please indicate in advance of the donation that you are requesting a donation receipt.
- If you represent a filmmaker or film distributor and would like to arrange a sizable donation of your titles, please contact us at visions.video.wmass@gmail.com
- We *do* accept donations of emerging work on VHS or other formats.
