Charity that picks up baby furniture, car seats, etc.? ?
Sponsored Links
Does anyone know if there is a charity that picks up cribs, car seats, crib sets (blankets, bumper pads, mobiles, lamp, etc.), and clothes? I just put away our Xmas decorations in the basement and just stood looking at a crowded end of it….filled with our son’s baby items.
We are NOT having any more children right now…maybe ever…so I’d like the items to go to a good home where someone needs it.
Any ideas??

I believe with places like goodwill and salvation army you have to bring it to them- but I am not sure. However it will be used wonderfully because not a lot of people can afford a new crib, car seats or anything.
I bet though if you put an add in your local paper that you have free baby stuff to give away- a bunch of people will come to you.
And thats so nice of you to share instead of throwing it away.
God bless you

yahoo freecycle
people will come pick it up if you post as free!!
I did this with all my baby stuff!!! and it was gone really fast!!
I donate most things to FreeCycle. This is an international recycling scheme where basically you give away anything that you no longer need or use. You put your item on and if someone else (who is registered with Freecycle) wants it, they come and get it. I joined last year and have given away everything and actually got lots of new stuff too.
in canada, the diabetes foundation will come pick stuff up:
"Clothesline(R)
Clothesline(R) has been operating across Canada for over 21 years and
allows individuals to donate their reusable clothing and household items.
Donors can arrange for a free pick-up by calling 1-800-505-5525 or donate
clothing items to the program’s red drop boxes located in communities
throughout Canada. In 2006, over 47 million kilograms of clothing, household
items and furniture was diverted from landfills through Clothesline(R)."

here’s an idea: http://www.pickupplease.org/
this agency picks up donated items to support America’s veterans.
The carseat you would have to give away. No one will take used carseats because it is against the law. As for the other stuff maybe Salvation Army, craigs list, or have a garge sale.
