I need to get rid of old furniture as i am moving from my apartment. Donator etc?

Question

I have some sofas clothes etc that i want out of my apt as i am moving. I never paid for it so i don't really want money for it. (this does not belong to the apt ppl). I have tried craig's list etc but no one has come to pick it up. I called salvation army and goodwill but they don't pick up from my area. Does Redcross pick up furniture? Anyother ppl who can PICK UP furniture as i can't take the stuff anywhere. Any help will be great?

Answer 1

You could try Big Brothers/Big Sisters, the Lupus Foundation and the Veterans one (can't think of the name).  There's also the one called something like Association of Retarded Persons, or something like that.  If worse comes to worse, you could always pay a company to haul it away as trash.

Answer 2

Try listing it on Freecycle. I have found that the more detailed the listing, such as color, condition, etc., the more likely you will find interested people. In your case, I would also list the size and state that you are unable to deliver. That way, people will know if they have the right sized vehicle to pick up the furniture.
