A Truck of Designer Furniture Is Coming to Harrisonburg

A 52-foot truck of designer furniture is coming to Harrisonburg, and we're selling all of it at a fraction of retail.
Sectionals. Sofas. Bedroom sets. Mattresses. Department store returns, the kind of pieces that sit on showroom floors with four-figure price tags. A sectional that retailed for $7,000 will go out our door for around $1,500.
Here's the part that matters: every dollar funds addiction recovery.
When and where
Saturday, June 20, from 9 AM to 4 PM, at 430 N. Mason St in Harrisonburg. First come, first served. Bring a truck if you have one and we'll help you load. Full details and directions are on the SVTC Furniture Sale page.
Why the prices are real
A $7,000 sofa for $1,500 sounds like there's a catch. There isn't, beyond the obvious one: these are returns. Department stores can't resell a returned piece as new, so they move returns in bulk to organizations like ours. Most of it came back over fit or color, not damage. We inspect everything before it goes out.
We buy by the truckload, our cost per piece is low, and we pass that straight to you. We're not trying to maximize margin. We're funding a ministry.

Buy a sofa, fund recovery
This is the simplest part. SVTC Furniture Sale is a program of Shenandoah Valley Adult Teen Challenge, our residential recovery program in Mount Jackson. Nonprofits running businesses is nothing new. Goodwill has done it for a century. The money these sales bring in goes straight into helping men rebuild their lives after addiction.
So you furnish your living room for a fraction of what it should cost, and someone gets their life back. Both things are true at the same time.
This is one of several ways we're building a ministry that sustains itself, the same thinking behind the future we're working toward and the renovation at 6043 Broad Street. Less waiting on the next check. More work that funds the mission directly.
Come see us June 20. Bring a truck.
