Futon base for Super King Size (200x180cm) mattress (Caversham RG4)
Promised
This 6cm-tall futon base is in excellent condition. It comes as a set of 3 segments, each of which is 66.7x180cm. When placed side by side, the segments cover 200x180cm, which is suitable for a Super King Size mattress. Each segment weighs 8.4KG (18.5 pounds), so carrying them from my house to a van (or a car with a roof rack) should not be a problem. If you want this item, then send me your phone number (for arranging a mutually convenient collection day/time) plus your preferred days/times for collection. I work from home, so most days and times (morning, afternoon, evening) are good for me.

Large Stack of Seasoned Firewood (Purley on Thames RG8)
Promised
A large stack of well-seasoned wood available for free collection. It is a mix of small branches, sticks, kindling, and cut timber offcuts. Because of the size of the pieces, it is ideal for chimineas, patio fire pits, or for building a fire ahead of Bonfire Night. Quantity: Large stack measuring roughly 3–4 metres long (as pictured). Condition: Well-seasoned and ready to burn. Collection: Please bring plenty of sturdy bags, rubble sacks, or boxes to transport it, as well as a suitable vehicle. Priority will be given to whoever can take all and collect promptly. Easy access for loading from the patio/drive.

an inlaid mahogany bedside cabinet (Fords Farm RG31)
Delivered to me by another freegler (thank you!) but it doesn't fit my requirements! It is heavy and is 33ins high x 14ins wide x 11ins deep (nearly the right size). The internal shelves can be adjusted. However, what I thought was a drawer at the top is just a mock drawer as I discovered this when I opened the door while cleaning it! and a collection time will be required before I give my address. Thank you.

I have a fan motor in working condition. It's been taken / salvaged from a 16" pedestal fan whose plastic parts broke off and the stand had rusted away too, but the motor is going strong still. Its a working motor with it's safety housing and wires.. maybe someone could repurpose it for "turning other things" at speed in their lab?
