Frequently Asked Questions

  • I need furniture. How do I get furniture?
    Have your social worker, case manager, or care coordinator contact us to get the process started. All of our furniture recipients are referred by a partnering agency. We work directly with social and community agencies to coordinate every delivery. If you do not have representative, check out our list of partnering agencies. Please note: Contacting our office will only delay your process, as Happy Home Furniture Bank is unable to determine or recommend an agency.

    Sorry, we don’t accept furniture with a stain or tear. We want to make sure we deliver gently used furniture to people in need. Our goal is to provide furnishings that help build confidence and dignity with each furniture delivery.
  • Why does my furniture need to be outside for pick up?
    Honestly, it comes down to liability. Happy Home Furniture Bank isn't a moving company so our insurance doesn't cover us as such. Please place your items on a porch, in the garage, or anywhere outside of the home. (Tax deductible pickup fee: $50) If this is not an option, we work do with a team of independent delivery/pickup drivers that are able to enter your home or apartment to pickup your donation. However, the tax deductible pick up fee for this extra service starts at $150 per pickup.

    Needs fluctuate depending on inventory, but we are always in great need of cash donations, volunteers, Partner Agencies, beds, new mattresses, sofas, and dressers.
