5 Places to Donate Furniture in Bangkok

Moving out of Bangkok or simply decluttering? Instead of sending usable furniture to the landfill, consider donating it to organisations that will put it to good use. Here are 5 places in Bangkok where you can donate furniture, appliances, and household goods.

2. The Salvation Army Thailand

5. Precious Plastic Bangkok

They can direct you to upcycling workshops and community spaces that accept donated furniture for refurbishment projects. A good option if your furniture needs some love before it can be rehomed.

Tips for Donating Furniture in Bangkok

Clean items thoroughly before donating. Most organisations cannot accept broken, heavily stained, or mouldy furniture. Take clear photos and share dimensions when posting online. For large items, be prepared to arrange delivery yourself or hire a pickup truck — services like Lalamove and Deliveree offer affordable same-day transport across Bangkok.

Check for Pests Before You Donate

Before donating furniture, check for signs of bed bugs (tiny dark spots in seams, live insects in crevices), cockroach eggs (small brown capsules in hidden corners), or ant activity. Donating infested furniture spreads the problem to someone else's home.

Khun Clean's natural bed bug treatment can treat furniture before donation or before bringing second-hand items into your home. Our food-safe diatomaceous earth eliminates pests without chemicals that could damage fabrics or wood.
