We love books as much as you do! We also know how it feels when it's time to downsize or you've had some life changes.
Our book pick-up program offers you an option to clear off your shelves all at once without lugging heavy boxes to the thrift store or paying to have them removed.


We review each book individually. We sell any books that we can to recoup our costs. The remainder of the books get donated to various non-profits, schools, art programs, little free libraries, and used book stores that are able to receive donations.
