Does Sanitation redistribute good quality furniture or other reusable items placed at the curb?
No, it is not legally or logistically possible for the Department of Sanitation to operate such a program. Some reusable goods left at the curb may be taken away by scavengers. By the time Sanitation trucks arrive, non-metal bulk items left at the curb will be collected as refuse, while metal bulk items left at the curb will be collected for recycling. To make sure your reusable goods find a new home, see New Homes for Old Stuff on our NYCWasteLess website.
