My mother passed away in March. I have been trying to donate a hospital bed, but have had no takers. I called the county Department of Aging, the Salvation Army, Goodwill, hospice care, and other charities. I put the bed on Facebook Marketplace and had no interest. I really thought that there would be an interest in a good hospital bed. I checked Craig's List and eBay and they also sell and ship hospital beds. I would prefer for the interested person to pick up the bed. Has anyone had any experience with donating a hospital bed?

I’m surprised you did not have good luck on Facebook marketplace. My suggestion if the church call doesn’t work, is to contact a nursing home or private care home or assisted-living that you know handles low-income residents. Also they are very unlikely to take a used mattress.
I know when I had a relative he had to move into a nursing home the beds there were in poor condition. So many of them were manual.
When my uncle died my aunt donated his very nice hill ROM bed to a nursing home where my grandmother resided and she ended up using that bed while there.

Thank you and take care!
Is the hospital bed still available?
Thanks!
It is starting to look a bit like a Craig's List.
Maybe it is time to archive this......
