Recycling on Freecycle

Wednesday, January 27th, 2010 at 11:24 am

One of the my favorite ways of stretching my dollar is to get things for free. On this same note, I hate to see anything that is still useful get thrown into a dumpster. I have recently discovered that there is a whole network of people worldwide who feel the same way about these two items.

They gather online at a site called Freecycle.org and describe themselves as follows:

The Freecycle Network™ is made up of 4,880 groups with 6,929,000 members across the globe. It’s a grassroots and entirely nonprofit movement of people who are giving (& getting) stuff for free in their own towns. It’s all about reuse and keeping good stuff out of landfills.
