GIVIT has called on the community to not offer unsolicited donation to those impacted by bushfires around Queensland, but instead donate goods or funds to it.
The charity, in partnership with the Queensland Government, manages all offers of donated goods and services following a disaster in the state.
"GIVIT is supporting services responding to bushfire emergencies in QLD and northern NSW," a GIVIT spokesperson said.
"Unsolicited donations are hampering efforts. Please do not drop donations to affected areas."
To donate goods or funds visit givit.org.au/disasters.
The Red Cross is also coordinating some relief for those impacted by the fire.
