    I just had a company contact me about picking up all of their old computers. They asked about a donation receipt for taxes or a green receipt / certificate?



    What is a green receipt/certificate???

    It's a paperless electronic receipt. A lot of business are going to where they email your receipt. This actually isn't a bad idea if you don't have some kind of "donation receipt" you can simply make up something official looking and email them a "donation receipt". We are in the recycling business....It doesn't strike me as odd to receive a green receipt from a recycling company.

    Then you are all set, but keep that idea in mind. You could simply make a "green receipt" and email it to people vs. killing a tree. It's becoming more and more common. This idea may be useful if someone asks for a donation receipt during a pickup and you don't have one prepared, it's a professional excuse for not having a receipt.
