Small pull-out sofa: donation options?
by Laura Gordon 13 Aug '22

13 Aug '22

Hello, We have a small (60" long) lightweight sofa where the cushions pull out/unfold to make a "sleeper" sofa. The dimensions of the pull-out are 45" x 78". Given the tear in the arm rest as shown it's not a very desirable item. However I hesitate to just put it out on the curb. Since it's small, lightweight and has the pull-out option, it may still be useful to somebody. Has anyone in HP worked with any charities that might be able to use something like this, as well as pick it up? Thanks for any suggestions, Laura Grafton St

Haven't heard back from PPS yet, so wondering if any PreK Dilworth parents know if the PreK students wear school uniforms or not? Also, is there a supply list for the year? Thanks! -- ------- Shannon Marie Anglero

Hi Neighbors: This person is really great and reliable--- several Highland Parkers employ her and are happy with her service. She is a Jamaican immigrant with a beautiful eight year old son, and she lives on Heberton Street. I can vouch for her absolute integrity and her skill. Her name is Novelette. If interested, please call her at: 412-689-9339. Thanks, Jane McCafferty

Large Work Desk/Table
by Our House 12 Aug '22

12 Aug '22

This desk/table makes a great office/computer desk, work bench, crafting table, sewing table (we've used it as all of the above). We're down-sizing, and hope to see it go to a good home. It's in great condition - all drawers and the cabinet (1 shelf) work well and are clean. The dimensions: 96" long, 30" deep, 30" tall. The top and drawer fronts are laminated. The top separates from the upright leg and the base cabinet for easy transport. The desk is perfectly rectangular - the camera angle skews the perspective. >From a smoke-free, pet-free home. You must be able to remove this from our basement - a short hallway, up one step to a short driveway and the street. Two people and an appropriately-sized vehicle recommended.

Tree removal?
by Sarah Villafuerte 11 Aug '22

11 Aug '22

Hello neighbors. We had a pretty tree fall down last weekend. The estimate to have it removed surprised me. Does anyone have any tree service recommendations? We just need it chopped up and hauled away, no stump removal. Thanks Sarah
