Can a host business of a clothing donation box claim the items in the box on their taxes?

No, because the people who donated the clothing in the first place are claiming it.
No, and if anyone on here is connected to the IRS in the Austin area, you can probably betcha they'll be doing drop box host audits real soon. :)
If you itemize your taxes (those who put clothing into the box) take a photo of the items in bulk, like open boxes, showing what is in it. I box up like women's sweaters, tops. Men's jeans/shirts. Your tax person can tell you if your contribution can be used. Dropping off at a site, you should get a slip of paper from them for taxes.
