Old pizza delivery bag (March PE15) 13d - This won’t be used for food, so condition isn’t too important as long as the zip or Velcro flap works. Minimum 16” pizza sized. If anyone has one gathering dust from a previous delivery job, I could give it a very useful second life, thanks. I’ve been asked to update this post for the conspiracy theorists that have complained, with their suspicions that I want this bag for something illegal (?) but if it stops people sending complaints about this post, then you should know it’s going to be used to transport framed artworks to galleries, so I can hang it on the back of my wheelchair. So calm down, and next time try asking the poster before you send in complaints.

XL collection of Empire film magazines + extras (March PE15) Gifted 129d - Huge collection of Empire film magazines, going right back to the 1980s, also some Empire released soundtrack and trailer dvds and cds plus a couple of VHSs for good measure! Hundreds of magazines. This would be a great reference collection for a film buff or a film studies student. Or someone who has a massive crush on film stars from the 1980s onwards! I was gifted them for an art project but they weren’t suitable, so passing them on. It’s far too heavy a box to lift so collector would need to bring a decent quantity of strong bags to split the collection up to lift them.

XL Collection Of Travel Guides (March PE15) Gifted 155d - Over 100 worldwide travel guides - Lonely Planet, Rough Guides, AA guides etc. To be taken all together. They are boxed up ready to go. This is a collection amassed by my neighbours who were until recently very well-travelled indeed! Collection only from March.

Old newspapers for craft project (March PE15) Expired 164d - Does anyone have any really old newspapers? I’m after those sort that leave a horrid black newsprint on your fingers, so probably 20 years old or older, before they found a solution to that problem! Condition doesn’t matter, as long as they are the type that ink comes off on your hands! I can collect whenever suits you. Thank you and fingers crossed!

Dresser (March PE15) Gifted 170d - Dark wood vintage dresser - the top section comes off. Width 106cm, height 180cm at its highest point at the top, depth 48cm I have managed to fit both bits into the back of a Qashqai together when separated, to give you an idea! Collection only from March

Tallboy (West Town) Gifted 203d - This is a dark wood tallboy with two cupboards and two drawers. It’s an upcycle project as it has quite a few scratches as seen on the photo. Nothing that can’t be sorted with a coat of varnish or a chalk paint makeover. It’s an old sturdy piece of furniture and would be ideal for storing all sorts of stuff. It’s currently in storage in Peterborough (I don’t live there any more) so I’d have to arrange to go over there and meet you for collection - for this reason, please only say you want it if you’re 100% able to commit to collect, as I don’t want to make a 40mile round trip and sit in the car only for a no-show! You will need a van, trailer or a car that is a bit bigger than a Qashqai, it’s about 1m15 wide by about 1m 30tall from memory. I’m free most of the time with a few exceptions.

Pole segment for bird feeding station (March PE15) Expired 221d - Does anyone have any of the pole segments for the type of bird feeder in the photo? I think I originally bought mine from B&M but they seem to be quite common. I’ve lost one of mine in a house move so it’s not tall enough now! If you can help please let me know, I’d be very grateful, thanks! I can collect from anywhere round March or surrounding villages. Thank you.

Offcut of insulation board (March PE15) Received 230d - Does anyone have any small offcuts of roof insulation panels (Celotex or similar type) I could have please? I’m only looking for something approximately 14” x 22” (or a bit larger and I can cut to size) I can collect whenever it suitable to you. Thank you.

remote control for Amazon Fire Stick (March PE15) Expired 337d - I wonder if anyone has an old Amazon Fire Stick or Fire Stick Lite remote control in the back of a drawer? Mine has just died. The basic one will do (as pictured without tv controls) but I have a feeling any version can be programmed to be compatible. I’d be happy to come and pick up anywhere in the March area/surrounding villages/Peterborough or Huntingdon as I will be out and about this week. Thanks for reading.

E-bike (March PE15) Gifted 347d - I have an LaFree e-bike available. It is an older type and comes with battery, charger, keys and manual. It’s been stored in my shed for the past couple of years so will need some tlc to bring it back to life. It needs new tyres and the seat cover changing, the chain needs cleaning & reseating, and all of the chrome work needs a good polishing. The brakes will probably need some attention too. I have charged the battery up to full and it seems to be holding its charge ok, but I am unable to give it a test ride as I’m awaiting hip surgery, which is why I’m not selling it on eBay! Collection only from PE15.

Shredded paper for pet bedding/papier-mâché (March PE15) Gifted 360d - Shredding 20 years of paperwork and I now have bags and bags of crosscut shredded paper which would be great bedding for Guinea pig/hamster/rat etc, or to use for papier-mâché craft projects. I’m going to be shredding for days and it’s a mammoth task but if anyone can use it then please get in touch. If not then it’s off to the tip next week.

Paper shredder (March PE15) Expired 1y - Does anyone have a paper shredder they don’t need anymore? I could give it a new home! I have a ton of old accounts paperwork I need to dispose of securely, so an A4 shredder would be a big help. I can collect any time that suits. Thanks for reading.

Fencing panels (March PE15) Expired 1y - My fence partially blew down in the winds yesterday, which was helpful as I was going to take it down anyway! There are four panels - two are blown down and the other two will easily come out I imagine. If anyone can use it for anything - patching up a shed, allotment, firewood etc, then you’re welcome to collect it. You will need a van or roof rack unless you’re planning to cut it up into smaller chunks. I am happy to assist lifting them as much as I can, but I am disabled so don’t have a lot of brute force!

Recliner sofa (March PE15) Gifted 1y - Really comfortable two seater manual recliner sofa, chocolate brown suede effect fabric, fire label still vaguely attached. It has some cat scratch damage (example in second photo) which could be disguised with a throw, but is way too comfortable to throw away. The recliner mechanism is all in good order. Collection only. It comes apart into two halves (so could be collected in a largish car if you make two trips)

Ladies bike & car carrier (March PE15) Gifted 1y - Classic ladies bike in sky blue. Belgravia Viking bought a few years ago from Go Outdoors. I barely used this bike because my mobility gave up the ghost shortly after buying it! It has sat unloved for three years mainly in a shed. It will need some attention - gear oil, tyres, chain and chrome polish etc. A spring project? I also have a rear carrier which attaches to the tailgate. Collection only.

Dining table (March PE15) Gifted 1y - Dark wood dining table with double drop leaves. 2nd Photo is of one side extended, but both sides lift to make a much larger table. It would be a great upcycling project as it is solid and well made but would benefit from a bit of a sand and some wax. Perfect space saving table. Collection only so would need a large car (I know it goes in a qashqai!)

Sideboard (March PE15) Gifted 1y - Modern sideboard with no back. Three drawers and two cupboards underneath. There is some chipping to the front edge as seen on the second photo. The drawers and doors all work fine, and as it was originally flat pack, it probably would come apart for transport. Collection only.

Dehumidifier (March PE15) Expired 1y - A bit of a long shot at this time of year, but does anyone have a dehumidifier they would be willing to part with? I’ve just moved into a bungalow, and my little conservatory is really damp! I can collect any time, except Wednesday day morning or Thursday 12-3pm. Thank you for reading, Jayne

Small fridge freezer (March) Gifted 1y - This is only a few months old, bought as a fill-in because my old one died a few weeks before I moved house and ordered a new big one. It’s a Fridgemaster MTM48120FS_SI Fridge Freezer in Silver Dimensions (cm) - H118 x W48.1 x D51 Collection from PE15

Washing machine (March) Gifted 1y - Whirlpool washing machine, works fine but surplus to requirements as already have an integrated one in my new place. Sorry the photo is not brilliant! Collection from PE15

Cream vertical blind (March) Expired 1y - This is a cream vertical blind with the rail and fixings. Was made and fitted by Hillary’s. I took the plastic chain at the bottom off a while ago so you’d need to replace it, they are only a couple of quid from Dunelm etc. Size 181w x 128h I will be listing more of different sizes as I gradually remove and replace them. Collection only from March

Dismantled 6ft x 8ft shed sides (March PE15) Gifted 1y - I’ve just moved and had an old 6 x8 pent roof shed dismantled as the roof was in a bad way. The sides are mostly ok, a small area of one would need patching near the bottom. The roof is beyond repair so would need to make one or use the panels for something else. Might suit allotment holder or DIY wizz! Probably need a van or roof rack if not planning to break up for firewood. Collection only March.

Stone garden ornaments (March PE15) Gifted 1y - I’ve just moved into a bungalow and the previous occupants left lots of stone animal garden ornaments dotted around the front and back garden. I don’t want them… does anyone else? Collection only from PE15 9PU Thanks

Old heavy duty PVC banner 2ft x 8ft approx (New England) Expired 1y - Does anyone have an unwanted old heavy-duty pvc advertising banner lurking around? They are normally approximately 2ft x 8ft and I’m after the sort with eyelets round the edge for securing it with rope. It doesn’t matter what’s printed on it, as it won’t be used as a banner - it’s to use to make a sliding mat to get a heavy wheelchair in and out of my car boot. If you can help, please get in touch, it would be really appreciated. I can collect pretty much any time or any day. Thanks for reading

Filing cabinet & suspension files (New England) Expired 1y - Light wood three drawer filing cabinet with a big bag of suspension files. One of the handles is cracked but could be glued - it is still intact. This was previously gifted to me but I’m downsizing. Collect from New England.
