Wednesday is the first day of Spring and to most people that means the start of spring cleaning. As area residents begin to declutter and remodel their homes and apartments, officials from Habitat for Humanity of Greater Chattanooga Area are encouraging them to donate unwanted, gently-used household items and building materials to the affiliate’s sixth annual ReStore Donation Drive.
Items can be dropped off at the ReStore at 1201 E. Main Street, Tuesday through Saturday, or at the Hixson and Chattanooga Lowe’s Home Improvement Stores on Saturdays, between 10 a.
m.–2 p.m., April 6-27.
Items that will be accepted in this year’s Spring Donation Drive include:
Furniture New Mattresses
Window Treatments Low Flow Toilets
Building Materials/Lumber Working Appliances
Flooring/New Carpet Doors (only solid)
Cabinets Paint/Wallpaper
Lighting Windows
Hardware Plumbing Supplies
Sinks/Faucets Tools
Outdoor Furniture
All items should be in good and working condition. And for those items that are too large and heavy to transport, Habitat’s ReStore Team can pick them up at no charge.
The person, contractor, or business that donates the most materials with the highest monetary value during the donation drive wins a $500 Lowes gift card along with other prizes.
To schedule a pick up or to learn more about the Spring Donation Drive and Habitat’s Restore, call 423 756-0507.
