GBAR and Gentle Giant Moving Company have partnered to help fill the furniture bank at Household Goods of Acton. Please participate in our furniture drive where we will have moving trucks collect items from you, which will then be donated to families making the transition from homelessness into permanent housing. The families will “shop” at the Household Goods of Acton warehouse and select the items that will suit them best in their new home. To schedule a pickup, please contact Gentle Giant Moving Co. at 1-800-442-6863 - at prompts press 3 and then 0 for the receptionist.
The dates of calling to schedule a pickup are October 2 through October 20. You must provide Gentle Giant with an explanation of items you are donating so that they are able to efficiently plan the truck route. The people who receive the donated furniture move the furniture themselves into their new home. They often move into second-floor walk-up apartments. Our goal is to give them furniture that can fit up the stairs and into their new home, so we will not be able to accept oversized furniture.
Acceptable items include:
Couches/Love Seats | Futons | Upholstered Chairs | Nightstands |TV Stands | Dining/Kitchen Tables & Chairs | Dressers | Small Bookcases | Counter-top Microwaves | Toasters | Coffeemakers
**All items must be in clean and usable condition. Please no over-sized items.
No rips, tears or stains. Please no glass or stone. Also no drafting or gaming.
For additional questions or to help determine if an item will be acceptable, please contact Gentle Giant Moving Co. at 1-800-442-6863.
