Smileyfem Posted October 3, 2006 Share Posted October 3, 2006 I am moving in with my boyfriend and have lots of excess furniture that i don't need as he has his own. Rather than throw it away i thought someone else could make use of it. I don't want to make any money out of it as it was all given to me so is second hand. Does anyone know of anywhere in sheffield that takes used furniture and recycles it for the homeless or other good cause? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zebra Posted October 3, 2006 Share Posted October 3, 2006 Oh I know a place, ST Vincents on Queens Rd. They take stuff away for you and give it to people who have nothing. They helped me out so much when I moved into a flat with 16 pairs of curtains, 2 carriage clocks and a crockery set. They gave me a sofa, a bed, a fridge, washing machine, wardrobe and a piece of carpet. It kept me going for ages until I could buy new stuff. They are very worthy and I make a point of offering furniture to them when I can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strix Posted October 3, 2006 Share Posted October 3, 2006 If any of it is black ash bedroom furniture, I may be interested in donating some money to a homeless charity for it Also interested in a mahogany corner tv unit if anybody has one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plain Talker Posted October 3, 2006 Share Posted October 3, 2006 think the oxfam in broomhill used to sell used furniture but they don't help homeless people, thay take your donation and sell it on at fairly high prices... try NOMAD, the homelessness charity and advice centre, on 2738089 they run/ran a furniture store like St Vincents, called NOMAD NOMORE.

Guest_225 Posted October 4, 2006 Share Posted October 4, 2006 Does anyone know of anywhere in sheffield that takes used furniture and recycles it for the homeless or other good cause? I'm baffled, why do the homeless need furniture, where are they going to put it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
