  • 1.  Question about disposing furniture

    Posted Dec 27, 2022 03:20 PM

    Posting on behalf of Laurie Reese at Los Angeles Public Library:

    "I write to ask for guidance on how to dispose responsibly of two rollout carpets and four plastic DEMCO chairs I have used for about nine years now in my storytime area.  I have followed a few online leads in the LA area to no avail."

    Best,
    Tina

    Do you have contact with local Headstarts, preschools, or day cares? We often offer unneeded furnishings to our local partners who may not have the resources we do and appreciate access to our used furnishings. We also will often offer unneeded furnishings to other, smaller libraries around the region and the state.
