What a GREAT place...I was given some very unique and beautiful pieces from furniture to linens to crystal bowls complete set of China and flatware to many electronics. I now have everything I didn't have for my new home. Thanks for the referral Father Bill's program.

Doris King | Aug 23, 2022
Household Goods | Aug 23, 2022

Hi, thanks for your question. During their scheduled appointment, a client selects and takes home all items at the time of their visit, so there's no way to put something on hold.

I have a full sheet set, but the flat sheet has about 2” torn off the bottom edge (clean rip, so still a functioning sheet). Would you accept it?

Thanks for your question, but we don't accept sheets or other linens that are ripped. Feel free to donate the fitted sheet, though, if it is in good shape.

Hi, thanks for thinking of us, but we only do pick ups in the Acton, MA area.

I have an overstuffed large Living room chair to give away. It could use a new cover on it, but are you interested and do you offer pick up . We live in Lincoln, at Lincoln Commons, which is at Crosby Corner, across from the gas station.

Jeannette Hargroves | May 2, 2022
Household Goods | May 2, 2022

Hi, thanks for thinking of Household Goods. When donating, we ask that you select items that are in good condition, that will last, and that our clients will be proud to have in their homes. If the chair without a new cover fits that bill, we would love to have it. Unfortunately, we do not pick up in Lincoln (we have very limited pick up service, staffed by volunteers), but if you can find a way to get it to Household Goods, our donation drop off hours are Tues, Thurs, and Sat from 9am to noon. Thank you again.

What days and times can I drop.off a good, clean sofa?

Janice Richard | May 2, 2022
Household Goods | May 2, 2022

Hi, we accept donations on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays, from 9am to noon. Thanks for thinking of us!

Household Goods | Jul 1, 2022

They will start with an appointment - they need the help of an "agency" to book the appointment. Agencies can be a church, DTA workshop, or MAPS. They also need a truck to take the furniture they choose. http://www.maps-inc.org/

How do I make an appointment for myself I need some furniture I'm an immigrant I arrived a few months ago and I need some furniture

Fabiane Salazar Souza | Feb 1, 2022
Household Goods | Feb 1, 2022

Hi. Everyone who receives furniture and household items from Household Goods needs a referral from a social service agency, healthcare provider, faith community, or other organization. If you have a case manager or social worker, ask them to set up an appointment by completing the online referral. If you do not have a case manager or social worker, you can try contacting other agencies that refer to Household Goods, including your local housing authority, social service agencies, DTA offices, schools, places of worship, or community health agencies.

Could someone tell me if they generally have carpets, 8x10 or 5x8 in stock?

James Gibson | Nov 3, 2021
Household Goods | Nov 3, 2021

Hi, thanks for your question. We do accept donated carpets and generally carry a variety of sizes, but because we are dependent on donated items, our inventory varies day to day, so we can't guarantee a certain size when someone visits.

my name is Lucielia, me and two friends just arrived from Brazil, we need help, we have nothing to take to the apartment, we just rented, nor bed. One of my friends is pregnant, so we need a lot of help. How you can help us?

Lucielia Farah | Aug 31, 2019
Household Goods | Aug 31, 2019

Hi, the way we work is that we provide items by appointment. An agency would need to refer you and schedule it for you. We accept referrals from housing authorities, food pantries, DTA offices, churches, etc.. If you are working with any type of agency they could schedule an appointment for you. Does your town have a social service coordinator? They could refer you also. I hope this helps.
