Donate Furniture

Office furniture is an essential part of every business and organization. Often businesses will upgrade or replace their furniture and they are left to find somewhere to dispose of the items. Throwing them in a landfill is not an environmentally conscious way to get rid of office furniture as it adds to the already overloaded landfills. As more people and businesses adopt a 'green' lifestyle, there are more eco-friendly ways to get rid of their office furniture. One such way is donating it to a needy cause. By doing so, you are helping the environment and a charity.

One way to locate a place to donate office furniture is to check online for organizations that accept these types of items. If the organization has a charity status, you will receive a receipt for your donation that you can use for a business tax deduction. It is important that you give them all of your contact information and address so they can give you a tax receipt. You can donate chairs, desks, tables, copiers, phones, fax machines, printers, and computers. For instance, Freecycle is a nonprofit organization that is a free internet service helping to encourage the reuse of items instead of throwing them away. You just post what items you have to give away on the list that serves your area. You will not get a tax receipt, but you will be helping someone in need as well as helping the environment.
