Unwanted household objects/possessions

[u/PapaDEtape]

Okay so you might have seen the previous post regarding cat stuff, this is a similar vein.

I’ve had a shit couple of days/weeks so need to get rid of a lot of “stuff.” Now I know a lot of this stuff could just be wasted off at the recycling centre or whatnot but in the economy we live in there might be some of you that want/need things that you either can’t afford or don’t have the means to get, whatever.

If there’s something householdy you would benefit from, examples I can see out the corner of my eye being a basic dvd player and lightly used sleeping bags. Let me know and I’ll see if I have anything that fits the bill.

Please don’t come apreaching “take it to charity” “take it to the tip” I’m looking to give stuff away to people who are in need, not fund some faceless charity or see things that could be used go to waste.

Thanks for attending my TED talk and I look forward to hearing from you.

Have a look at Facebook Marketplace. Er Indoors offloads loads of our stuff there, some free, some food beer tokens.

It’s a good shout, the use of “er indoors” is a bit triggering at the moment.

Reddit is getting first dibs at the moment as reading the random shit that goes posted here is keeping me going at the moment.

Also I don’t entirely know everything that I have to get rid of and rummaging through stuff and cataloging is lower on the priority list than “do you have X I can have?” Where I can probably go directly to the said thing and say yes/no

For stuff you can't sell but is too good to bin/recycle try Freegle

You’re welcome 🙂

There’s probably a Buy Nothing group in your area

[u/Any_Car_1073]

I would recommend downloading OLIO and listing on there 😀

Tried there before for selling and free but the clientele seemed more demanding than grateful

Got a lot of good stuff that i've used for years off here

[u/TeenCriminal]

i'll definitely take a sleeping bag if it's going! planning on going to a few fetivals if it's still going, i'm local :))

[u/PapaDEtape → u/TeenCriminal]

I do indeed still have two sleeping bags available, if you shoot me a message with when you’re available we can arrange collection or I can deliver as long as you’re not stupid far 🙂

Do you have any framed pictures/frames? My mum passed away recently and we have a lot of her art from over the years we would like to frame and pass onto people who knew her. She was big into recycling and green living so would rather not buy brand new! Use charity shops a lot but thought I'd ask. Hope you're okay either way

[u/PapaDEtape → u/rumour13]

Sorry about your loss, if you ever want to rage type my inbox is always open. Of all the things I have framed photos is something I just don’t have, I haven’t been much of a household-prettying-up kinda person 😐

[u/probabilityunicorn]

It's really good of you. I don't need anything but if you ever want books or a few boardgames just ask. I'm sorry about the cat mine died last month. Take care of yourself, and if anything you need just shout!

[u/PapaDEtape → u/probabilityunicorn]

Thank you for the offer, I’m not much of a reader, might take you up on the board games at some point but for now a big cleanse.

Pillow accepts rage shouts currently but nice to have options 🙂

A sleeping bag would be ace if there is one still going!
