Hey all,
I have an old Ikea leather couch with a rip in the middle cushion. Other than the rip, it's actually in pretty good condition. The problem is that the few local donation organization groups in my immediate area who also offer pickup won't take it because of the rip. I'm almost tempted to try sewing it up or patching it and then having them come out to get it LOL. I've listed it on Craigslist, Freecycle, Nextdoor, and a few bites but no takers.
Anyone have any other ideas on how to get rid of it? I won't be able to haul it off to drop off anywhere myself. It's a shame because I'd hate to see the couch go to the dumpster with a little 3-4" rip. Maybe I will consider patching it up and then donating. Though, that's risky too as I wonder if the donation organizations would see the patch and still reject it.
