Donate Used Furniture to Charity and Keep Those Items Out of Local Landfills

Old furniture doesn’t have to be destined for the dump. Choosing to donate used furniture to charity is an outstanding way to get rid of the furnishings in your Atlanta, GA, home or business that you no longer want or need, and it’s a decision that can have a tremendous impact on the environment.

By deciding to donate furniture to a charitable organization instead of placing the furnishings curbside for your local trash collector, you’ll be recycling those materials for continued use. Doing your part to ensure useable furniture remains in circulation is one of the most eco-friendly decisions that can be made. Donating furniture not only prevents landfills from filling up more quickly – it also prevents other natural resources from being used to have to create new furniture. Though you may have grown tired of your old desk or have re-designed your living room and want to get newer bookcases or other accessory furniture that better matches your décor, you can donate your old furniture to charity and give it a new life. As long as the furniture you donate is sturdy and doesn’t have distinguishable signs of extreme wear and tear, it could end up being a great addition for another household.
