Furniture

Give Furnishings

Have an overflowing attic or garage? A basement of buried treasure? Your excess clutter could help turn someone's empty living space into a functioning home.

Your tax-deductible donations of gently used furniture, kitchenware, linens, and basic household items are an easy, green, and cost-free way to help hundreds of your neighbors regain their lives and acquire the basics of a functioning home.

CARITAS furniture bank needs clean, usable furniture and household items to meet our goal of helping more than 100 households a month turn their living space into a usable livable home.

Donations can be dropped off Monday through Friday from 10:00 a.m. - 4:00 p.m..
Our Location:
1125 E.Commerce Rd
Richmond, VA 23224

Your willingness to bring the items to the Warehouse reduces our operating costs and is very much appreciated. If, however, you would like to schedule a pick-up of a large item, or have any questions, call 804-343-5008 x411 or e-mail us at furniture@caritasva.org. We ask for a $30 donation at the time of the pick up to help cover the cost of the truck. To schedule a donation pickup please click here.


Please review the list below to make sure we can accept your donation.

Items we can use:

Furniture – Mattresses & Box Springs (especially Twin and Double), Dressers, Night Stands, Kitchen Tables & Chairs, Sofas, Loveseats, Recliners, Coffee and End Tables, Shelves, Small Desks and Lamps and rugs

 

 

 

Kitchenware – Dishes, Glasses, Pots & Pans, Silverware, Cooking Utensils, Baking Pans & Casserole Dishes, Dish Racks, Toasters, Coffee Makers, Mixers, Blenders and Microwave Ovens

 

 

 

Basic Household Items – Sheets, Blankets, Towels, Sleeping Pillows, Mirrors, Fans, Space Heaters, Mops, Brooms & Vacuum Cleaners, TVs, Radios, Alarm Clocks, Irons, Telephones and Garbage Cans.

 

 

 

Sorry, but we cannot accept:
Clothing, food, large desks, baby items or furniture of any kind, wood bed frames, console televisions, toys, books, or exercise equipment. Please contact one of these other non-profit agencies that may need these donations.




Please note the following information:

  • Donate items in ready to use condition.
  • Have the items you wish to have picked up in your garage, on the driveway or very close to your doorway so that our drivers can load quickly.
  • No console TVs (a TV in a furniture case).
  • We do not directly pick up large appliances. If your washer, dryer or refrigerator is 12 years old or less, we can often match your donation directly with families who have requested appliances through other social service agencies.

Thank you in advance for your generosity and support in helping us meet this critical need in our community!

 

Items donated to the CARITAS Furniture Bank will be given to clients and used to further the mission of CARITAS.
