Pick-ups requested outside of Allen County will be scheduled in bundles with other pick ups in the same area, additional notice may be required.
Suggested Donation
Furniture Donation Pick-ups are always free. We do request you consider a suggested donation of $25-$100 depending on donation size to assist with covering the transportation costs related to your furniture donation. The donations collected for removal services go back into the organization to support our mission of ending furniture poverty in northeast Indiana. The suggested donation allows us to keep our trucks on the road, maintain our warehouse space, and provide gently used furniture to families restarting after a crisis. Because we only charge a minimal processing fee of $30 for a family to receive up to an entire household of furniture, we rely not only on your material donations but your financial donations to sustain the work.
