All furniture requires a phone call and photo before donating and may be declined due to limited warehouse space or saleable condition.

Their wording

“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.”
