I live in Lakeview and am getting ready to move. I have a loveseat and a large chair to donate and would like to find an organization willing to pick these pieces up. Any suggestions?

I call Salvation Army for all our donations. They will come and pick up and give you a receipt for tax deductions. They then put it in their shops to sell.

The White Elephant (Children's Memorial Hospital), The Ark, or The Brown Elephant. If you can't find the numbers let me know, I can dig them up.

My sister just moved and could really use livingroom furniture. If your open to the idea of giving it away instead of donating it please let me know.

I used white elephant about 5 years ago. I liked it better than salvation army b/c they gave me a 1 or 2 hour window when they were coming and with the salvation army it was more like a 4-5 hour window. I don't know if it is the same now.

The Salvation Army will pick up donations, but you usually need to give them some advance notice. (Probably at least a week or two in advance). I'd give them a call...

Good luck with your move!

The Salvation Army will pick up your items and provide you with a receipt for tax purposes. Depending on your location, they onl pick up one day a week though so it could take a couple weeks notice. We donated some items last summer and they were the only place that was willing to pick up large items.
