HOLIDAY CLOSURE: We will be closed 11/24 & 11/25 in observation of Thanksgiving. We will be open 9am-12pm on Saturday, 11/26.
YOU can help the Sharehouse turn housing into homes!
To donate furniture & household items, please:
- Review our lists below of what we can & cannot accept
- Drop donations off to our warehouse on Monday/Wednesday/Friday (9am - 4pm) OR Saturday (9am - noon)
- Schedule our truck to pick-up if you are in Seattle, Shoreline, or Mercer Island
It costs us approximately $75 for each pick-up we do in the community. To offset our costs, we do require a monetary donation. You may self-select from a sliding scale starting at $25 (less than a trip to the dump & your still-useful stuff isn’t going into a landfill!). Call for more info & to schedule as far in advance as possible (we typically need at least 2 weeks notice).
