Recycling reusable furniture at no cost to our communities' vulnerable populations and reducing solid waste sent to the Benton County landfills.

BFS News: Blackledge Furniture donates truck. Read the Gazette-Times story here, and read the Gazette-Times story here on how Benton Furniture Share recycles student furniture from Oregon State University at the end of the academic year.

Benton Furniture Share was established in May 1998 to facilitate the re-use of unwanted furniture by providing it to low income households, thus diverting it from the landfill.

Benton Furniture Share services provide improved family interactions, increased comfort and safety in homes, the ability to sleep comfortably, eat meals together, and study comfortably. Studies show that furnished homes for families with nothing due to prior homelessness or domestic violence increased wellness, independence, physical and mental health.

Benton Furniture Share addresses a long-standing need in the community by providing the mutual solution to two problems:

• An abundance of usable furniture going into the landfill



• Too many households in the community doing without the basic furniture amenities
