What To Do With Return to A-Z Guide
Couches
Couches and sofas that are gently used, clean, and in good usable condition are accepted for donation at locations throughout the A2 Area Reuse Network. Before donating, make sure the upholstery or leather is clean and free of rips, tears, breaks, and animal hair to ensure acceptance. Couches and sofas that are broken and in poor, unusable condition are not recyclable but are accepted for safe disposal at the Drop-Off Station and Recovery Yard as general waste.
Choose Zero Waste!
Try to find another use for couches and sofas in your home, if not possible, donating usable furniture instead of throwing them away or recycling them is the best way to ensure they get reused!
Accepted locally for donation at:
- House N2 Home accepts gently used furniture and household items
- Kiwanis Thrift Sale accepts gently used furniture and household items
While we do our best to stay updated on alternative reuse and recycling locations, we recommend that you call locations before taking your item(s) to confirm that they currently accept them.
