Wallace & Adam were great. They were knowledgeable in what could go to the junkyard, stay for City of Santa Monica Bulky Pickup and donated to The Salvation Army. They quickly and efficiently helped me disassemble my shower caddy to pack into a moving box, clear/haul away donations in the garage and haul bulky pickup items to the alley pickup area. Extra points for clearing the garage of garbage. Than you both so much while I was panicking about not getting everything out in time. I appreciate so much service arrival within the hour. - Rachel

Brandon and Gavin from Lugg were fantastic. They picked up a couch and a mirror from my place and delivered them for donation, and the whole process was seamless. They were right on time, super professional, and handled everything with care. What could have been a stressful move was incredibly easy thanks to them. Really appreciate their efficiency and positive attitude. Highly recommend Brandon and Gavin if you’re using Lugg! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ - Zoe

He was amazing! He was super effecient and friendly! Very willing to go above and beyond with extra little tasks which was so helpful. He also called the donation drop off place before he got to mine to confirm they’re open and accepting donation which was above and beyond! I for sure will use him again :) - Julia

These guys made getting rid of stuff during a move MUCH less stressful than it could have been. They shared their knowledge about local donation centers so I could make sure everything was accepted (and avoid paying for several boxes to be hauled out to junk/the dump); it turns out my stuff would have definitely been turned away at the two closest goodwills, so I was really grateful for their friendliness and expertise. - Alexandra

Both Cody and Mauricio were personable and professional in handling everything I requested - taking apart a full bed frame, lugging all this stuff down for donation and for bulky item pick up (including a mattress, a futon, a desk, etc). Our new place had two flights of stairs and they navigated that with humor and a super good attitude. Thank you so much! - Maria

Angel and Carlos were on time and in communication. They called my cell to make sure they parked in the right spot. They were friendly and very efficient. When the dining table could not fit out the door (it's so large) they easily disassembled the legs and moved it out OK. Also, one of them has been to the donation drop-off location before so I was even more confident it was going to delivered to accordingly. I'm glad I found this service and will use it again. - Brandy

Who picks up furniture donations in Orange County?

Some charities do, some of the time. Whether a free charity truck reaches you comes down to your ZIP code, how far out their next slot sits and whether they'll take the piece at all, and the answer changes from one organization to the next. A booking of your own removes all three variables. Lugg is an on-demand moving and delivery platform in Orange County where you book local movers to collect donations from your door and deliver them to any charity you choose, for the loads a car won't hold and the days a charity truck can't come.

What a free charity pickup asks in return

Free is the right price when the timing happens to work. When it doesn't, the cost shows up elsewhere: a slot weeks out, a route that skips your address, a list of items they can't accept, and a crew that can still decline something at the door if it turns up damaged. Every organization sets its own rules, so call the one you're donating to before you plan around it, because what one takes doesn't mean another will.

One load, several charities

This is the part a single charity's truck can't do. Bags of clothes, boxes of housewares and the armchair nobody wants to carry down can all go in one booking, and one booking holds up to five stops. So the clothes reach one place, the furniture reaches another, and anything nobody accepts goes on to a recycling or disposal site instead of back into your hallway. Plan the stops when you book and they're in the estimate you see before you commit.

Any charity, including the small local one

Lugg movers deliver to Goodwill, the Salvation Army, Savers, Habitat for Humanity ReStore and the Furniture Bank Network, and equally to the thrift shop two streets over, a shelter, a church or a school drive. You give the address, so the choice of who receives it stays yours rather than being set by whoever happens to run a collection route near you.

What you'll see before you book

Enter your address and the charity's address and the estimate appears before you commit to anything. There are no hourly minimums, so a half-hour donation run costs half an hour of work rather than the two-to-four-hour block a moving company would quote for the same trip. You choose the truck to match the load, and small items should be bagged or boxed before pickup.

FAQs - Charity donation pickups in Orange County, CA

Lugg can deliver most donation items, including furniture, appliances, clothing, and household goods, as long as they're in good, reusable condition suitable for donation.

Tip: Before booking your Lugg, double-check your local charity donation centers acceptance policy and drop-off hours in Orange County.

Absolutely, Lugg can drop off your donations at any local charity, nonprofit, thrift store, or community donation center in Orange County, not just major organizations like Goodwill, Salvation Army, or Habitat for Humanity.

Yes, Lugg can load and deliver several donation items or boxes at once, as long as everything fits safely in the truck. For multi-stop donation runs, you can add up to 5 stops per Lugg when booking.

Lugg's weight limit is 125 lbs per Lugger, or 250 lbs per item on any vehicle that comes with two Luggers: Pickup, Van, XL, Box or Box+. Anything heavier needs more Luggers on the job, so book a second Lugg for the same time window. There's no limit on how many items you move, and size comes down to which vehicle you choose.

Yes, smaller items like clothing, linens, or kitchenware should be packed in sturdy boxes or bags for transport. Having your items packed and ready helps your movers complete your donation pickup faster and keeps smaller items secure during transport. Your Luggers can wrap and protect furniture and large items for safe transport.

Not every donation center accepts all items, we always recommend calling ahead of time and confirming they are able to take your items. If the selected charity donation center cannot accept your items, your Luggers will contact you to coordinate another destination or return option. Standard rates apply for rerouting or additional stops.

Tip: Donation centers often reach capacity later in the day. To avoid delays or rejections, we recommend booking a morning arrival window and calling ahead to confirm that your location is still accepting donations.

Items may be declined if they're broken, stained, torn, missing parts, or unsafe. Most donation centers also reject old TVs, mattresses, or large appliances due to health or recycling restrictions.

To prevent your item(s) from being rejected, we recommend calling ahead to your charity donation drop-off center in Orange County to ensure that the location accepts your items.

Yes, for estate cleanouts, office donations, or community drives in Orange County, you can book as many Luggs as needed for pickup and delivery to your chosen charity donation location. Luggers will ensure items are delivered to your selected donation partners safely and efficiently. For multi-stop donation runs, you can add up to 5 stops per Lugg.

Yes, Lugg can haul away most items that charities or donation centers won't accept to a local recycling or disposal center in Orange County. You can also combine a donation drop-off with a haul-away or disposal stop in one Lugg.

Tip: Not every recycling or disposal facility accepts all items, so we recommend calling ahead to confirm their hours, accepted items, and any potential fees.

Upon request and when available, Luggers can send you a photo confirmation as proof of donation. For official tax receipts, you'll need to get documentation directly from the charity donation center or charity at drop-off.

Yes, with Lugg you can book on-demand, same-day, and next-day charity donation pickups. Movers and a truck can arrive within the hour, or you can schedule up to 60 days in advance for a time that works best for you.

Pick the truck that fits what you're moving. Almost every option is a two-Lugger booking, so crew size isn't usually the decision — the Lugg Lite is the exception.

  • Lite: 6 ft+ long × 4.5 ft wide. A single Lugger with a pickup truck, for a stack of boxes or a few lighter pieces.
  • Pickup: 6 ft+ long × 4.5 ft wide. The same truck as the Lite, with a second Lugger.
  • Van: 8 ft+ long × 4 ft wide × 4.5 ft tall. Enclosed, so better in bad weather.
  • XL: 10 ft+ long × 5.5 ft wide × 6.4 ft tall.
  • Box: 12–16 ft long × 6 ft wide × 7 ft tall.
  • Box+: 18–24 ft long × 6 ft wide × 7 ft tall. The largest option, built for commercial relocations and anything that needs maximum cargo space.

Tip: Pickup trucks carry a tarp for light rain, but book an enclosed truck — Van, XL, Box or Box+ — if heavier rain is forecast. When in doubt, size up.

Not all box trucks have a lift gate. If your charity donation pickup needs one, say so in the 'What are you moving?' field when booking and Lugg will do its best to accommodate.

We recommend that you or someone 18 years or older be present to provide access and confirm which items to take. However, you can also arrange a contactless donation pickup if items are placed safely outside or in an accessible area, just include those details in your Lugg booking.

Yes, you'll need to pack before your crew arrives, because Lugg doesn't provide packing services or supplies. Box or bag any small, loose or fragile items, including kitchenware, electronics accessories, office supplies and anything that could shift in transit.

Your Luggers bring moving supplies and equipment to protect furniture and larger pieces, but having your things packed ahead of time keeps your donation pickup quick, organized and damage-free.

Every Lugg charity donation pickup in Orange County includes professional moving equipment, straps, dollies, moving blankets, and stretch wrap to protect your items and your space, plus a basic toolkit for light disassembly or reassembly. Pickup trucks also come equipped with a tarp for weather protection. Your Luggers will wrap fragile or bulky pieces for safe transport, take care to avoid damage to floors, walls, and elevators, and know how to get heavy furniture, appliances, and other large items through tight spaces, stairs, and doorways. This helps ensure a smooth, efficient charity donation pickup from start to finish. We do not provide moving boxes or mattress covers. Please have these items ready if needed.
