Charity? no, greedy church Complaint Rating: Company information:Salvation Army New Rochelle, New York United States
When my mother died I had a houseful of older furniture in very good condition, or so I thought. Not wishing to endure the craziness of Craig’s list or a yard sale, I called the Salvation Army to donate all of it to the needy. They sent two guys: one looked like he thought he was a Hollywood producer and the other I think just got out of jail. The ‘Hollywood” one flounced and flitted thru the house and within 2 minutes said “oh, no no no, none of this will do, sorry. Have you got anything else? ” ELSE??? People are homeless and sleeping on sidewalks and you’re turning down four bedroom sets and a whole livingrm/dining rm suite??? I was livid. All they want is NEW stuff in Perfect condition so they can sell it at top prices in their “thrift” shops. You can do better at Target or Ikea – these people are PHONY and should not call themselves “non-profit”!!! I will never put a penny in their stupid buckets again. Translate Toen mijn moeder stierf had ik een huis vol oude meubelen in zeer goede staat, althans dat dacht ik. Niet willen de waanzin van lijst Craig’s of een garage sale te verduren, ik belde het Leger des Heils om alles te doneren aan de behoeftigen. Ze stuurden twee jongens: een leek alsof hij dacht dat hij een Hollywood-producent en de andere ik denk dat net uit de gevangenis. De ‘Hollywood’ een volants en fladderde thru het huis en binnen 2 minuten zei: “oh, nee nee nee, niets van dit alles me zal doen,. Heb je nog iets anders? “ELSE?? Mensen zijn dakloos en slapen op trottoirs en je bent het draaien van vier slaapkamers sets en een hele livingrm / eetkamer rm suite?? Was ik razend. Het enige wat ze willen is NIEUW spullen in Perfecte staat, zodat ze kunnen verkopen . tegen topprijzen in hun “spaarzaamheid” winkels Je kunt beter bij Target of Ikea – deze mensen zijn PHONY en mogen niet noemen zichzelf “non-profit” Ik zal nooit een cent meer in hun domme emmers!.

22nd of Nov, 2010 by  pobarjenkins 0 Votes The condition of furniture can be relative, and sometimes they have higher standards for pieces they have too much of or pieces that take a large amount of space. Though it seems like you are not a very understanding person seeing how quickly you are to judge someoen based on appearance.   8th of Dec, 2010 by  sweetandlony 0 Votes I agree. My donation of very good wood furniture and an expensive glass patio table set with chairs were refused. I was told Salvation Army does not take summer furniture in the winter. The wood china cabinet had aged scratches on it but in almost excellent condition. I really feel that they made a bad judgement call. However, it would be nice if when scheduling they would tell the donator the possibility that the furniture may not be accepted. After all I waited for 2 week for the pick up and now have to make other arrangements.
