This notice from Freegle makes you think, hopefully...

"It's tempting to gather up loads of items, put them in the boot of your car and dump them at the tip. It's all rubbish isn't it? Maybe, but take a closer look and think about other uses for them - you're now looking at a valuable resource. Here are a few ideas of what to look for:-

  • Old towels and blankets - maybe a local animal rescue centre could use these.
  • Bulk small items together: 30 plastic plant pots, a couple of old planters, some wire and an offcut of fencing - all collected by a grateful gardener who was starting up an allotment.
  • Put similar items together: A lockable child proof box and toy boxes were collected by a freegler who was about to start fostering children.
  • It doesn't have to be big: A rotary washing line spike that didn't fit was collected and installed on the same day complete with drying clothes. Both freeglers were delighted.
  • Is it broken? Great, that's a good thing. There are plenty of freeglers who love to mend items or upcycle them into something completely different. So offer your broken washing machine, printer, jam jars, garden fencing, bricks and more!

We’ll be freegling this weekend, why don't you too - have a great time!"
