Looks like beggars can be choosers
Arranged collection of a few items I didn't have time to sell before moving. Thought it would be better to give to charity then let them go as freebies. Delivery window was useless. Got a text to say they'd arrive soon and watched them sat in the same place for an hour on the map (must have been lunch break). Drivers arrived late, were grumpy and rude because they had to walk down the drive way as van was too large to drive up it. They struggled to communicate with me and when they did it was to tell me that one IKEA sofa didn't have a fire label (ok, no idea why that is but can't be helped now). They then pointed to a slight spot of discoloration on a mattress less than three years old. It's where the spot washer had left a watermark from being cleaned, barely visible. They refused to take it and I ended up having to tip a perfectly usable sofa and mattress. I guess some charities aren't that "in need". On a side note, I've been in-store and seen what they sell. It's filthy, covered in grime and looks like it's been raided from a crack den. Very odd double standards. I'd rather suffer a heart attack then deal with them again.
