Suggest a charity to take my chairs
We're getting 150 new ones in a design change at the restaurant. The old ones are fine, expensive , rustic wood chairs that went for about 500 each when new.

I've called all the locals and nobody wants them. I'll bet you could get a minimum of 10 bucks each on Ebay.....

Any suggestions?

4. Our local Salvation Army has a business outlet
where they have office furniture, ect. I imagine you tried them?

A new trend in Habitat for Humanity is to have "Re-stores" which are thrift shops containing building materials and other non-home stuffs. You might also try them.

6. List them on Craig's List
It's free and I've found it effective. I'd recommend posting a picture if you use Craig's List.
