Furniture
1! Check first All furniture requires a phone call and photo before donating and may be declined due to limited warehouse space or saleable condition. — “For all furniture items – small or large – we ask that you please give us a call on 01226 240 908 and send us a photo before donating to the hub via our Facebook page or via our WhatsApp on 07349 270625. This helps us establish what we have room for and whether it is in saleable condition, which means we don’t have to turn anyone away when they arrive with their items! Please note, all soft furnishings must come with the fire retardant label intact. Due to limited space in our warehouse, we may have to decline furniture items – we hope you understand.”

Other things they mention
More rules from their donation guidance, in their own words — these don't have their own page on this site yet:
- Can't accept Broken items (general) — “Please refrain from bringing broken items to the hub. Disposing of these items comes at a cost to us, which means less money goes toward funding the specialist palliative care Barnsley Hospice provides. The only exception to this is clothes that can be ragged, which we are happy to recycle.”
