Furniture Friends is a nonprofit furniture bank that accepts gently used furniture at its Westbrook warehouse for redistribution to people who lack the resources to furnish a home. The official donation page lists accepted and excluded items and requires donated furniture to be clean, usable and free from serious wear, stains, pet hair, smoke exposure, breakage or bed-bug concerns. Drop-off is available during published hours, and free pickup is offered in specified Greater Portland communities.

Unlike a conventional thrift store, Furniture Friends distributes accepted furniture to referred households at no charge. This makes it a focused option for executors with suitable beds, tables, seating, desks, lamps and other qualifying home furnishings. The program does not accept many oversized, glass-heavy, appliance, bedding or kitchenware categories, so reviewing the current list before arranging transport is important. Save a trip! Call Furniture Friends first to confirm hours and that they are accepting what you’re bringing.
