Free: Electric Lawnmower - non charging (Upper NW DC/Tenley vicinity) Withdrawn - Black and Decker cordless electric lawnmower which currently does not take a charge. It may just need a new battery.

Mulching blade is installed and collection bag/funnel have been lost. The plug in charging unit (which still lights up to indicate charging) will be included with your pickup. PLEASE INQUIRE ONLY IF YOU CAN PLAN TO PICK UP FROM UPPER NW DC near the intersection of Reno Rd and Brandywine St NW - check that location before committing to a pickup.
