As a result, we purchased a small waste incinerator from them, which, for example, can be installed and used in a greenhouse. Such a stove is made on the principle of solid fuel stoves. In which garbage mixed with chips is placed. We took small sizes, so after experimenting, we realized that our own garbage was enough to use it, and at first we also intended to dispose of the neighbor's garbage in this way.
It was straightforward before, when emails were simply redirected. Now I have to log in for every message and was unable to change that setting. Callie997 didn't show! She (Gemma), didn't message. I waited in all morning to give away a like-new £100 memory foam mattress. My complaint about her to the moderator just got an error message, time and time again. My post was inaccessible and I could not change it from 'taken".

As far as I use this tool, I find it quite useful and it always helps me to understand how to do everything correctly.
I have been a freecycler for over a year now and have kept many things out of landfills as a result. If you are setting up housekeeping, it is a great place to post your wants. If you are downsizing, a wonderful way to empty out the clutter. I have been on both sides of the freecycle model many times and have met some great people and had much luck doing both the giving and the receiving. Give it a try!
This is a brillaint idea. I pesonally gave away one cd player and garden furniture. I got a washing machine and shelves. It's great when you've started renting and don't want to spend too much money in furniture.
This is a great idea. You can recycle goods that you would other wise throw away or are too embarrassed to sell on craiglist. Pay it forward by giving to others and you never know what goodies you'll get back. I got rubby duckies for my wife's baby shower.
The Freecycle Network is a grassroots and entirely nonprofit movement of people who are giving (and getting) stuff for free in their own towns. It's all about reuse and keeping good stuff out of landfills.
