I am a single mom of 3 girls. I just moved into a house. I need help with a bed for myself and dressers for me and my children. I am on welfare and am struggling very hard. I have looked all over Craigslist for free furniture and I'm getting nowhere. Can somebody please help me with other suggestions for finding the pieces I need?

Look at the Goodwill Outlet. Not a regular one but an outlet. I hope you find one nearby! Sometimes the furniture is scarred or needs a little repair work but most pieces are $3-$5. Good luck and big hugs to you and to your girls! They are lucky to have a mom who takes good care of them. www.gwoutletstorelocator.com/
I have visited a Goodwill Outlet once earlier this year and furniture section was very reasonable. Everything seemed to be definitely under $10.00.
They had decent condition couches, tables, dressers, tv stands, desks and so forth.
Even bikes for $5.00. I found the clothes and appliances, electronics steep for the quality though but every location varies.
The Goodwill Outlet would be a good option, you may have to rent a truck. Home Depot has a good deal 90 minutes for $19.99 I believe. Or, U-Haul the smallest truck is $19.99 + cents per mileage and you get 24 hours.
Nextdoor.com and Craigslist.org are my top two favourite sites for finding these things. You'll need an account for Nexdoor. Good luck!
Finding Free Furniture
You could post on Craigslist seeking free furniture, instead of looking for free and hopefully someone sees your post!
