Donate & buy pre-loved goods in Basingstoke
The Community Furniture Project is a furniture and household goods re-use project. Everyone can shop for low-cost, good quality pre-loved furniture and goods at the Project. We offer additional discounts for customers in receipt of benefits or state pensions (proof required). Plus, by promoting re-use of pre-loved things we protect the environment by reducing waste and keeping items out of landfill.
Proceeds from the Furniture Projects help to support the wide range of projects including providing day services and training for vulnerable adults. Donate your good quality, unwanted furniture and household goods and you will help others to improve their living conditions and benefit the most vulnerable members of your local community.

What can you donate?
We accept donations of furniture, electrical appliances (that are working), homeware and kitchenware, bicycles, books and bric-a-brac.
All upholstered furniture must either have a label attached which states it complies with the 1988 Fire Regulations or have a label with a post 1988 manufacturing date to comply with the law. All mattresses must have a label attached stating ‘Resistant’ with a symbol of a match or cigarette. Sorry – if your mattress is stained, we cannot accept it.
We accept working electrical goods, with a CE label, which we then safety test. We do not accept gas appliances, tumble driers or child car seats.
