Can I bring my items to you?

Yes!

Donations in small quantities can be dropped off M-F from 1pm-3pm.

Large quantity donation dropoffs and moving truck dropoffs need to be scheduled in advance. To schedule a large quantity dropoff, please email Jeff Rahuba at jrahuba@furniturebankatlanta.org.

Do you charge for pick-up?

Some pickups require fees. Pricing options are outlined in the online donation form. Unlike other non-profits that accept furniture, the Furniture Bank does not sell the items you donate. We provide furniture to 40 families in need every week.

Fees are non-refundable:

• If you cancel your pickup less than 48 business hours in advance
• If your furniture is declined at the time of the pickup (drivers have full discretion)
• If you miss your time frame or are unavailable

What areas do you pick-up in?

We provide pick-up services for most of Cobb, Gwinnett, Fulton, and Dekalb counties.

What time will you pick up my donation?

All pickups occur between 8am – 4pm, Monday – Friday. You will receive a three-hour time frame, and our driver will call when they are 15-30 minutes away.

What condition should my furniture be in?

All items should be in good usable condition without need of repair or cleaning. We will not accept any furniture that is torn, stained, ripped, broken, incomplete, structurally unsound, or has been in the presence of pet hair or smoke. Our furniture movers will assess the item and
make a final decision on whether we can accept it. Drivers have the full discretion on accepting an item. Mattresses and box springs can be in any condition.
