Pay it forward.
Your furniture deserves to be loved again.

Without the generous donation from our community and surrounding area, we would not be able to accomplish what we do.  If you are planning on donating, there are a few key steps and questions to answer before you get to our front door, and are welcomed by our staff and volunteers.

Rules of Thumb for Donating

Would you buy what you are donating?

If not, chances are someone else may feel the same.

Does it actually work?

Any time and effort put towards housing your garbage, is less that we can put towards making a difference in our community.

Is it boxed up and safe for Volunteers to handle?

If so, give yourself a high-five! Thank you for donating today.

Donation Hours

We kindly ask that you do not drop donations off on the sidewalk after hours.  Leaving donations outside the store after hours is technically referred to as “Dumping” and can result in a fine of up to $1000.00 for the offending party.  Thank you for your cooperation in this matter.
