Finding Free Furniture?

Where can I find free furniture? We are struggling and have no money for new things. My old couch is years old. We are down to the metal; sitting on it is hard and hurts. May God bless as you touch our lives. Thank you so much. I will be praying for someone to help. Thanks.

Go to the Salvation Army Church and ask for a voucher for free furniture, but only ask for what you definitely need. They don't always have what a person needs and their stores, that I am familiar with don't let people have the better furniture for free. Also be aware that when people give away furniture it might not be any better than what you have. Is it just the cushions on your couch that are worn out, if so, you can buy foam of the appropriate thickness that you could pull the old stuffing out and put the new in the covers.

There are also places like freecycle and craigslist, online. But most places that will be giving free furniture, expect you to be able to transport it. You could ask your pastor if he knows of anybody in the church that will be getting new furniture and wanting to get rid of the old. In that case somebody would probably be willing to transport if for you.

I was helping a friend move, and one of the men that was also helping worked for a local furniture store. He metioned that there are people out there that change furniture quite often.

A lot of this goes in the dumpster and there is nothing wrong with it. Maybe you can check with them or someone that works there, they can keep an eye out for what you need.
