Review of Austin Habitat for Humanity

I live only a few miles from the San Marcos Restor...

I live only a few miles from the San Marcos Restore & have a couple of fabulous chairs (one never even been sat in) - and they refused to pick them up. Said it did not meet their "requirements". They probably wanted more furniture for the donation to warrant the 3-4 mile trip. Very unfortunate since we're in a new community of 55+ with over 300 new homes and 3000 anticipated in the coming 2-3 years. Lots of new business possible! Due to physical limitations, we cannot load them in a truck & drop them off as they suggested. Just because of mine & my husband's limitations, we should not be prohibited from the pick up service. I'm sure they could "piggyback" it with another larger community donation. Oh well - will call Salvation Army (& I will also include additional furniture most likely).
