Day care centers. Or a lot of the elementary schools have a reward system and use donated toys as rewards.

It seems to me that the *sale* of used toys was forbidden a couple years ago here in MD. Thrift stores could no longer accept toys to resell.
I don't have children or grandchildren so I don't pay much attention to such stuff. But I do look for stuffed dogs and cats that were once toys; for display: TOYS (need to make sure I am politically correct here)
It may be that the place you called cannot accept your toys as per this law. BS to me. In my generation, hand me downs were the norm and a used toy did not take away from the enjoyment of it whatsoever. But, they should have at least returned your call.

I recall hearing about this. I think it may have had something to do with toys that had been recalled for safety issues.

Yes, please! If not I'll just drop them at my daycare.

My neighbor's church collects toys to send overseas. If I have a chance to talk to her, I'll let you know
