The movers were great. Your website however was misguiding. I wanted my one item donated or thrown away. I live out of state and am not familiar with the where to donate or discard items. Your website brought up a number of sites for donations and I picked the one closest to the moving site to reduce cost. The movers called me from the address that I had gotten from your website and there was a different business there. He had to do his own research to find an alternative. Needless to say, I had to add time and distance to my original bill. This is the second issue I have had with the company website. If only there were someone to talk to. The movers both times have been great. - Norah

I was wowed by Eder & Marcos’s efficiency, kindness, and professionalism from start to finish. They went above and beyond a couple of times — one was by calling me and offering their advice when my recipient was unable to take a large donated item. They fixed the problem without me having to update the delivery location on my own. The whole experience was a big relief after a previously difficult moving experience. I’d certainly trust Eder & Marcos to handle a future move. - Carmen

Who picks up furniture donations in San Francisco?
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 service in San Francisco that collects donations from your door and delivers 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 delivers 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.
