by TAMARAC, Florida – CITY Furniture(CITY), a family-owned American furniture and mattress retailer, fine upholstery manufacturer, and one of America’s Top 20 furniture retailers, is excited to announce that they will again be taking bold action to reduce waste and support their local communities by partnering with Habitat for Humanity of Broward for the upcoming Earth Day 2023 Weekend Event on April 21 through April 23.
The inspiring Earth Day program will provide customers who make a furniture purchase at any of CITY’s Broward/Palm Beach showrooms on April 21-23 with the opportunity to donate their pre-owned furniture to Habitat for Humanity. This will give customers an environmentally friendly way to discard of their older furniture, keeping it out of landfills. Last year alone, CITY Furniture saved over 50,000 pounds of furniture from landfills by donating customers’ gently used furniture to Habitat for Humanity. The initiative encourages customers to make a positive impact on the environment while supporting those in need.
The Habitat for Humanity donation process is simple and convenient – after making a furniture purchase in-store, customers will be directed to fill out an intake form online to complete their donation. This year, CITY Furniture is enhancing their Earth Day event by involving CITY Moves, the company’s professional furniture movers. After each purchase, CITY Moves, will call customers to confirm the donation details prior to their scheduled delivery date. During delivery of the new furniture, the movers will pack up, unpack, disassemble, and reassemble customers’ furniture which CITY will then donate to Habitat for Humanity. Customers may request a tax donation receipt following the furniture pickup.
CITY’s Earth Day Weekend Event is just one of its many ongoing initiatives in support of their commitment to leading “Green” change throughout the community, including an educational and interactive display about waste reduction at the Museum of Discovery and Science in Fort Lauderdale. A large part of CITY’s annual Corporate Responsibility Report is dedicated to the Company’s eco-friendly business practices, most notably the 2040 Green Promise, which is a commitment to achieving carbon neutrality through green practices by 2040.
