Give away stuff you don’t need

Jun 9th, 2008 by Chris Duggan, GreeninBrum | No comments yet

Freecycle is a large e-mail group where you can tell people about stuff you want to give away. Anyone interested will contact you and if the item sounds right they will come to your house to collect it, by arrangement…

“The Birmingham, England group of The Freecycle Network® is open to all who want to “recycle” that special something rather than throw it away. Whether it’s a chair, a fax machine, piano or an old door, feel free to post it. Or maybe you’re looking to acquire something yourself! Nonprofit groups are also welcome to participate too! One constraint: everything posted must be free.”

Freecycle is especially useful for items which are too big or not suitable for charity shops.
