You can drop off your donations at either our Shaler or West Mifflin locations. For drop off information and hours click here. There is never a fee for dropping off. If you are in need of a pick up, we schedule appointments Monday through Thursday in morning and afternoon blocks. Our morning block is between 8:00 a.m. and 1:00 p.m. Our afternoon block is between 11:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m. Someone 18 years or older must be present at the time of the pick up.

We are a Christ-centered nonprofit organization that receives no government funding. Our professional drivers will come into your home and pick up furniture from multiple levels. You can be assured that your items will go to help families in your own community rather than end up in a landfill.
