Best place to donate Electronics/Household goods?

[Mack10]

I have almost an entire house worth of electronics like TVs, computer monitors, computer towers, a couple cd players, DVD players, and furniture/household goods I'd like to donate. Anyone have a suggestion of where to take them where people who actually need them can benefit from them. Was thinking either Mustard Seed or Drop-In centre, but seeing if anyone knows of other charities that could really use them.

Goodwill

I have donated to Goodwill previously, it's a good option.
I prefer the Women In Needs Society (WINS). I suspect for that quantity, they'll come pick it up as well.
They have several locations, but I think the furniture is only accepted at the Forest Lawn location.

Isn't Goodwill just a for profit business? Or is that a myth?

They claim only 17% operational cost. The rest goes back to people.

But just like all charities, there are always fat cats leeching at the top.

i've used WINS, but it always seems like its inconvenient for them ben you drop stuff off, so i have started giving my stuff to the salvation army store on 17th ave se by the shoppers drug mart, they always seem quite appreciative of any drop offs.
