Are you looking to move out of your apartment and want to get rid and throw away of your furniture? Perhaps you’re just looking to buy new pieces to fit into the décor of your new living space. Either way, how do you throw out existing furniture?
Check with Local Government Bodies
Check with local city and government bodies to find out if they offer free or paid pick-up services for large items such as furniture. If this is a possibility, you could book a day and they will often come and get rid of it for you.
Sell Or Give Away
Local or various online marketplaces can be excellent for advertising your existing furniture because it could come in handy for someone else. Depending on the condition, you could either sell or give away your furniture pieces. You can also check out local thrift shop.
Donate to a Local Charity
If you are not looking to sell and your furniture is in reasonably good condition, you could donate it to a local charity. Many will even pick it up for free. Check out Salvation Army, Habitat for Humanity, Goodwill. There are also service providers like Green Drop who will pick up donations on behalf of their charity partners.
Check with Friends and Family
Another way to get rid of furniture is to check with your friends and family to see if someone needs it. This way, you could help someone you know in need rather than just selling or giving away.
Call a Junk Removal Company
You can call a junk removal company such as 1-800 Junk, College Hunks Hauling Junk and other junk removal companies. It might be good to also find out if they donate anything, so you choose the right option.
If you are moving out, don’t leave furniture inside apartment or you could end up paying a hefty penalty for getting it removed.
