Drop Off Old Furniture at 'UVA Sofa Shuffle'

What you consider old furniture and a hassle to move can now be turned into someone else's treasure.

The University of Virginia's Sofa Shuffle starts Saturday. For the next several weeks drop off spots are going to be set up for students and community members to unload any furniture, appliances or clothes they no longer want.

All the items will then be donated to the Salvation Army and Habitat Store.

"They know they have a place to bring their couches, their desks, their furniture, their clothes that they were thinking about leaving behind, and donate that to a really great cause," said Lauren Curley with Management Services Corporation.

Items will be collected May 9, 18 and 30, from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. by Salvation Army and Habitat Store collection trucks at:

• 780 Madison Ave. 516 Brandon Ave.
• Jefferson Park Avenue at Maywood Lane;
• 303 14th St. NW (St. Edwards Court)
• 1885 University Circle Crossroads Apartments at the intersection of Jefferson Park and Fontaine avenues.
