They said that they have to be stringent because salvation army will take it out of their paychecks and write them up for taking anything that won't sell. The workers had to inspect everything and if it was not in new condition they would not take it. Also they do not take press wood because if it breaks after someone else purchases it that its no good for them. They also couldn't take the fridge and said they only take dorm fridges. When I mentioned that the form allowed it they said that the form will allow you to pick anything but that they send the workers to deliver the bad news. The employees tell me that they cannot accept toys. The men that came were nice but the company sent them in the smallest truck meanwhile I had over 10 bags, a couch, a refrigerator and toys for pick up. I marked that I would like a call before they arrive. When you schedule it, they gave absolutely no window to know when they are coming. I arranged a pick up for donation, first off available dates are a month out. Sincerely and factual Mr.Gregory Louis Ross Jr.

I will continue to post and send documents to all the cores and command post all over the country to expose these racist liars the have no place representing the salvation army at all. I just want my name to be cleared and these people be exposed for the devil's they are. I have made a lot of mistakes in my life and paid for them all, I only want to expose the racism and prejudice with the head of Rocky Mount headquarters governed by the Meads I also am owed payment for my sick days before my unjustly firing, also to expose the lying racist MANAGER of the tarboro store. Also the manager at Tarboro also owns the (wagon wheel bar) and from her own their has never been a black person in her bar(I wonder why) In conclusion I only want justice. Don't get me wrong I have worked for the salvation army in many states also they saved my life at the ARC. This guy(Capt Wayne Meads) has fired or ran off almost every male employee he has probably because of his lack of manliness, I don't know. Captain Wayne Meads used me all the way up to the store opening, driving unsafe trucks, pawning salvation army medal, as well as making personal jobs for me beyond salvation army protocol such buying prescription meds and cleaning up in the sanctuary after their unbehaved children. So she lied on me, discredited my name and without a proper investigation I was terminated and this woman that had had only worked for less than a month was given my position. Manager at the new Tarboro store, I was fired recently because a white racist woman wanted my position. Never again will I call these guys and they are never getting a penny from me ever again - truly terrible experience! I had the option to sell these items, but I chose to donate thinking it would help someone in need but not only did Salvation Army cause me angst and disappointment, they also denied someone needy and less fortunate an opportunity to use my furniture. This was such a disappointing experience, that I asked them to leave my home. The pickup crew was extremely rude and as I was trying to understand their rationale of declining the pickup and what sort of predicament this was putting me in, they kept on saying "Like I told you." They took pictures, send to the office, called the supervisor who rattled off a bunch of canned lines (we do not accept any furniture with any spots, we don't climb stairs that are spiral and more than 13 steps, etc. There were many pieces I was donating (several leather sofas and chairs - all in great condition and expensive) but unacceptable to them. The pickup crew came and started to look at each of the furniture pieces under a microscope - a few spots here and there are to be expected on used furniture but it was unacceptable to them. The pickup was scheduled a day before the new furniture arrived. I scheduled gently used furniture pickup in order to make way for new furniture coming in.
