Following on from the Uber offer. This offer even collects furniture or other goods

FREE Home Collections

To make it as easy as possible for you to donate goods, clothing and furniture to Good Sammy, we offer a FREE service and will collect donations of furniture, large items/quantities, fragile or valuable goods.
Please call our FREE home collection service on 1300 GOODSAMMY or 1300 466 372 to arrange easy pick-up from your home or business (Perth metropolitan area and some country locations - please call to check if we cover your area).

You can help Good Sammy by only donating quality goods, clothing and furniture that are not broken or damaged. We do not have the resources to make repairs and tipping costs detract from our ability to support employment and training initiatives for people with disabilities.

Unfortunately we are unable to accept any of the following types of goods:

• Carpet fitted
• Computers
• TV's that are older than five years or have a set-top box
• Some TV Wall Units - please call us to clarify
• Wire spring base beds
• Vertical or Venetian blinds
• Air conditioners that are not portable
• Stoves & Gas appliances (we do take Gas BBQs)
• Electric appliances that are not in working order
• Sofas or mattresses that are torn or stained
• Cots & prams

  This has always been the case, and most other charities also offer this service as nocure mentioned. However, my experience has been that they may refuse to take items they don't think they can sell (either over the phone if they are overstocked, or upon collection if items aren't in good condition etc).

  Expensive antique furniture preferred! I guess the shop has got to make enough $$$ to pay CEO's salary ($1,000,000 +).

  I don't want to be that negative guy on a charitable page, but I've just about given up on colleciton services and donating to places like Good Sammys. We've had good, workable furniture and household goods before only to be knocked back by fussy shops, collection drivers and the like. Others have experienced this too.

  We might have a doubel bed mattress with a barely noticeable hole in one small part from time, or even a sofa that still works fine just cosmetically the bottom side of the arm rest was scratched up by the cat - and they refused to take it.

  It made me wonder just how much urgency their attention was to helping those in need. I can understand you wouldn't dump your old, brown smelly rags on people, but comon - working furniture that is a little worn (not too beaten up) and they won't take it due to whatever rules and regulations?

  We just gave up and it ended up on the curbside. Surely someone 'in need' with no other choice could have had a mattress to sleep on than nothing at all? It seems i'm not alone with drivers/stores not picking up anything but the best.
