Request Furniture Pick-Up

We are sorry, we are not able to accept pick-up requests at this time. We are short-staffed due to illness.

Your donation means so much to us, and to those who need a comfortable home. We will have our form back up and running as soon as we are able to. Thank you for your patience.

Houses into Homes is doing no-contact pick-ups only (in iowa city, Coralville, North Liberty, and tiffin). If you have beds, furniture, and other household items to donate, please Fill out the pick-up request form below. If you can drop your items off, please use the Drop-off form (button at the top of the page).

You should hear back from us within 1-3 business days. Please check your spam if you have not heard from us.

Thank you for considering donating to Houses into Homes. Your items will be given to recipients right here in the Iowa City community.

Donated items must be:
