Donate Furniture to ALIVE!
Take a look at the Amazon Wish List for the items we use every weekend to move donated furniture. Learn More.
Furniture donations are picked up from your doorstep by ALIVE! volunteers on Saturdays from 8 am -1 pm or Sundays from 12pm – 5 pm. Use this form to contact the ALIVE! Furniture Program and provide information about the items you wish to donate.
The ALIVE! Furniture Program is completely managed by volunteers who strive to provide a prompt response, but it may be several days before you are contacted. Therefore, pick-up on a particular day cannot be assumed in advance.
Items must be clean and in good condition. We expect scratches and other normal wear, but we cannot accept items that are stained, need repair, or in poor condition. Volunteers are asked to use their discretion and may opt not to take a donation on-site. Donations must be from the current list of Accepted Furniture Donations.

Volunteer with us! Our furniture program depends on volunteers to pick up and deliver donated items to families in need. Volunteers are needed on many Saturdays from 8 am – 1 pm and some Sundays from 12pm – 5 pm. Sign up to volunteer today!
If you must be rid of something by a particular day, we recommend that you not limit yourself to contacting ALIVE!, and we will understand if your items find another home before we can accept it. You also may consider posting your furniture on a local Facebook Buy Nothing Group, on Facebook Marketplace, or on Craigslist. We hope you are able to find a new home for your furniture!
