WANTED: Someone to go down the tip for me

Is anyone going down the tip already? We just had remedial work done to our wardrobe so there’s a bunch of chipboard out front soaking up the bad weather. I can’t get down there as my wife’s got the motor and I am way too decrepit to carry it from Lakenham – last Tuesday I walked to Drayton Road with naught but the clothes on my back and my knees are still sulking. So anyway, if you’re passing by City Road en route to the dump, I’d be well grateful if you could take these bits for me. Bless your saintly heart.

    1. Oh, that's a shame - my wife's hours are wholly incompatible with those of the municipal dump, so I was rather hoping that the request would be acceptable (I didn't see a problem in the faq @ http://faq.freecycle.org/faq/faq/faq_guidelines - is a more comprehensive set of guidelines available, please?)

      I presume, though, that it would be ok for me to offer the chipboard instead, just in case anyone would like it?

      Many thanks!

  2. Chipboard with wood effect veneer.

    This offering falls into two camps: a wet camp and a dry camp.
    The wet bits have been outside for a few days, so would be ideal for anyone who enjoys taking things to the tip.
    The dry piece, meanwhile, is approx 1 foot x 5 foot long and would be ideal for screwing a clothes rail to.
    While I would love this collection to stay together, I am prepared to split.
    [no takers]
