Affordable Pickup For Furniture, Appliances, Clothing & More

Giving your items - and people - a second chance

Our Mission

Second Chance Pickups’ mission is to economize and simplify pickup while creating positive change by keeping reusable items out of landfills, giving them a second life through reselling, donating, recycling, and other sustainable practices.

Because we work as a middle-man with a wide network of local nonprofits, shelters, and community partners, we can’t always guarantee exactly where each individual item will ultimately end up. What we can guarantee is that every donation is thoughtfully directed to the place where it makes the most sense and can do the most good. Whether That be directly to individuals in need or routed through organizations equipped to put them to immediate or more widespread use know that your donation will always be used in ways that maximize your kindness and create real, meaningful impact in someone’s life.

Where do my items go?

What type of items do you take?

At Second Chance Pickups, we are happy to offer affordable pickup of your furniture, appliances, and household items. We also offer pickup for commercial clients as well. All items must be in good, usable condition to ensure it can be effectively repurposed or donated. Please note that the assessment of your item's condition is at our sole discretion.

Items that are excessively worn, stained, torn, broken, infested, or have significant structural damage are not eligible for pickup. Our goal is to pickup items that can truly have a "second chance". We appreciate your cooperation!

Our Purpose

Second Chance Pickups is unique in that we act as a much needed middle ground between donors and the organizations that put items to real use. By carefully collecting, sorting, and evaluating your items, we’re able to direct them to the places where they can do the most good—rather than letting usable items fall through the cracks, sit overpriced on store floors, or end up discarded.

Many donation centers are limited by space, staffing, or narrow intake guidelines. As a result, perfectly usable items are often declined. That’s where we step in. We take the time to assess each item and match it with the right outlet—whether that’s a nonprofit partner, community organization, resale channel that funds local programs, or another responsible reuse pathway.

In short - we get your items directly to the people who need it most, when they need it most.
