Local charities which take appliances or construction material donations

Two local "ReStore" places, which are sales outlets somehow related to Habitat For Humanity:

The list of what the the chesapeake one takes is pretty liberal:

The Chesapeake one has a list to other Habitat For Humanity locations, which shows a Hyattsville (Brentwood) location.

I wonder if it's this "Community Forklift" location, which has a surprizing number of restrictions on what it will take:
