Donating Furniture

If I wanted to donate my bedroom set but I didn't want to have to move it or drive it anywhere, are there churches or other organizations that will just come and carry it out of the house and take it away?

Thanks!

Re: Donating Furniture

From what I found they are very picky!
Is it a whole set?
I only had a dresser to donate and nobody would take it. They only want full sets.
And they want it in pretty perfect condition too.

I called Salvation Army, Big Brothers, Big Sisters and I can't remember the other one. (maybe some veteran's organization?)

Try them- if it's a whole set they might come for it.

Also see if your area has a Habitat for Humanity ReStore. I believe they pick up.

Re: Donating Furniture

OK Great, thanks!

Its 2 dressers and 2 nightstands - from R&F, only 6 years old but a lot of peeling on the tops of the 1 dresser and the nightstands...so they may not want to take it since it's not in perfect condition.

I will try though.

Re: Donating Furniture

I literally have someone coming to pick up my couches today

I bought new couches at Raymour yesterday and they have me this card for someone to pick up for free my old ones

They donate them to people who are struggling after overcoming many different kinds of addiction

I can get the card today and get all the info if you want

What about Boots on the Ground. I know they donate furniture to veterans just not sure what their procedure is for collecting donations.

Re: Donating Furniture

Call Mike at And Furniture For All. He's through Suffolk DSS and will come pick it up from you. I've donated twice to his organization and use them as a resource for many of my clients.
