IOWA CITY – The Furniture Project in Iowa City is overstocked and not able to help people fast enough. Ever since the company Successful Living took over a year ago the Furniture Project has been working overtime. A lot of the furniture comes from college students leaving Iowa City for the summer. Furniture Project employee Bill Hardy said, “We’d have people say can you pick a couch up for us and we would end up cleaning out a two-bedroom apartment. Stuff like that we really get backed up and overloaded on. And we can’t get it out fast enough.”


The Furniture Project accepts used furniture from anyone. It then gives the furniture to low-income families. The group has everything from box frames and mattresses to kitchen table sets and televisions. The Furniture Project only charges to deliver furniture.
