Do you need to see photos of the furniture for donation?

Yes. We ask donors to send photos of the items they want to donate in advance of scheduling their drop off or pick up so we can make sure the items will work for the families we serve.

Can I Drop off Furniture?

We accept drop off donations of furniture in Acton. Drop off hours are Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays between 9am and 12pm. We are, at times, able to schedule other drop off appointments.

Do you offer pick up service? 

We offer pick up of donations of at least five (5) substantial furniture items.

Do you charge a pick up fee?

We partner with professional movers to handle our pick ups. While we do not charge a pick up fee, we request that you provide a tax deductible monetary donation to help us defray the pickup cost. The suggested amount is $250 to $400 depending upon the size of the furniture donation.

How do I schedule a pick up?

Email info@furnishinghopema.org with photos of the items you want to donate, the pick up address, and the date by which you must have furniture removed. We will contact you after receiving this information from you.

Will I Get a Tax Receipt for My Donations?

Yes. You will be given a link to a form to complete either before or after your donation. This form generates a thank you letter that also serves as a tax receipt.
