I heard about this from two different sources in the same
week. www.freecycle.org
It's a grassroots movement of people who are
giving (& getting) stuff for free in their own
towns. Each local group is run by a local
volunteer moderator (them's good people).
Membership is free.
I haven't tried it out yet but I was thinking that I have this
big plastic rooftop clamshell carrier that we used to move here
from Los Angeles. It's been sitting in storage almost 10 years now.
I think it's time to let go of it and give it to someone who is
going to use it.
