DIY: Freecycling: Give your "Stuff" new life.

One of our readers left an invaluable comment about free-cycling. See the comment at:

Free-cycling is simple.
- Decide what you dont need, OR what you need.
- Find a neighborhood group that is into free-cycling (You can find them at http://www.freecycle.org/. There are groups in about 5000 cities and neighbourhoods worldwide)
- Attend a free-cycling event. Give what you have and/or take what you want for free!

  1. Freecycle is a great resource but sometimes it can be hard for new Freecycle members to adjust to all the Freecycle rules and the flood of email from the mailings lists. I've built a new free web site for existing groups that tries to makes it easier for people to use Freecycle. You can try it out at http://trashnothing.com If you have any feedback, I'd love to hear from you.

  2. Thanks for the post Andrew. I will add a link to your site to other sections of my blog. I do see that trashnothing is still in its early stages so a lot of places do not have a TN group.
