Why use it
This is the one to try before paying anyone to take a sofa away: they come to you, it costs nothing, and you get a receipt for the tax deduction. Book by ZIP code on satruck.org or call 1-800-SA-TRUCK. They take gently used clothing, furniture, working appliances, dishes, bedding, bicycles, books, computers, sports equipment and toys. What they will not take is worth knowing before the truck arrives: appliances with mechanical faults, gas appliances, televisions more than five years old, built-in appliances, car parts, paint, chemicals and kerosene heaters.

Where your things go
A named destination is worth more than a stated intention, and both are worth more than silence. This is the row to read before you book: if your item's row is empty, ask them on the phone and tell us what they say.
Not documented yet. This operator has not published what happens to each kind of item, and we have not been able to establish it from anywhere else. That is the gap, stated rather than hidden. If you ask them, tell us what they say.
Does it actually work
The part no company website tells you. Some of this comes from our checks, some from readers who used the service, and where nobody has told us yet, it says so.

What readers told us
Used them recently?
How long you waited, what they refused, whether anyone picked up the phone. Those are the three facts no website publishes and the ones the next reader needs.
