Goodwill/charity ? (Charlotte: tax, store, homeless)

[rolltideroll]

SIAP. im getting new furniture and i dont even care about selling my old stuff. i would like to give some things away but they are big and heavy. does anyone know of places that will pick things up? with just my girlfriend to "help" it will be tough. Thanks (NOTE* i tried goodwill but you must have a certain number of items or they wont do it)

I think Habitat for Humanity Store will pick them up.

Salvation Army on Central should and you can also try Crisis Assistance Ministry.

Call the Kidney Foundation - they usually call me every few months to see if I have any 'household' items. I leave the items on my porch and they pick it up!

Kidney foundation just picked up my stuff last week, LOL. (Charlotteborn - looks like we both donate our goodies to them!)

I have had Salvation Army pick up the larger items (furniture).

Salvation Army is great. They send out a couple guys who take it all and load it up.

Salvation army picked our furniture and then gave us a reciept for tax purposes on what we estimated the value to be.
Also I had a lot of winter coats when I moved for the North and they took all of those as well with another tax reciept in return.
Because you hear of so many scams these days It's unfortunate you have to research charity's.

Rebound. they are an organization that works with alcoholics & drug addicts and gets the homeless off the streets.

We called the Salvation Army for pick up too. They came just when they said they would, and the guys were so nice.
