In speaking to their phone rep, she answered my questions on what household items they would accept. The answer was - any household item that was under 75 pounds. They even accepted bicycles that were in operating condition (flat tires ok). However, all bundled and single items must be tagged/labeled UWVC.

If you have household items that still remain after your flea market or garage sale season has come to a close, you may consider donating these household items to an organization that is helping to mobilize the public to help serve America’s Veterans The United War Veterans Council Inc is a non-profit, non-partisan organization the mobilizes public support for our veterans, connects our veterans to resources, and assists organizations that serve our veterans.
