Charities that collect goods in Belfast

Options
In the past it used to be relatively easy to donate a load of books/clothes to a charity as they used to put a plastic bag through the letter box and collect on a specified day. This doesn't appear to happen these days.
Would anyone know of any charity in Belfast who would be prepared to collect a couple of bin bags of books/clothes from a house?
Thanks.

  • I know that Action Cancer have their vans back on the road again. 
    Speak to one of their shops and they should be able to advise. 
  • Thank you.
  • Looks like they're only collecting furniture at the moment:

    I think the combination of the shops closing for a while and lots of people spending more time at home having a clean out means that they have too many donations at the moment - my local shop isn't accepting donations at all now, as they just can't store any more. Finding someone willing to collect is quite unlikely, but I wish you luck. You could always try a Facebook free stuff group or gumtree if you're just looking to get rid of things, though it may be more hassle than it's worth.
