Usually we have a strict rule around here to never pick up used furniture, as it’s entirely possibly infested with bedbugs. But this was a bit different, this was donated from a church school (my bad). It looks basically brand spanking new, save for a small hole in the left arm of it.

Yeah it got half soaked in the rain, but no big deal, it’s at my mom’s place now drying out. Here in a couple or few days whenever she tells me it’s dry enough, we’re gonna haul her old beat up couch away.

Edit: Photo added, cushions are off to the side still drying.

    we had no way to prevent it from getting soaked

    Oh. I hope it dries out OK. Not all couches recover from something like that.

    In any case it should be a good test for how clean it is; the smell will tell.

      I checked in with mom today, and the couch seems to be drying out just fine. We’re gonna give it another day or so before putting the cushions back on.
