Free: Cordless garden clippers (Dronfield S18) Gifted 15d - Small cordless hand garden clippers but the batteries don't hold charge. The charger seems to work so it may just need new batteries soldering in. Collection only, thank you.

Free: Elu router (Dronfield S18) Gifted 15d - This is quite old but was very good quality in its day. I think that a bearing is starting to seize and it doesn't respond to oiling. Sad to see it go as it was my late Dad's but I've got another, lower quality one of my own.

Request: A few old bricks (Dronfield S18) Received 22d - I'm doing a little bit of a garden project and I'd like half a dozen or so old bricks to finish it off. New ones won't look right next to the old ones. Thanks in advance! Sorted, thank you! Request: Circular metal table top (Dronfield S18) Withdrawn 30d - A strange request. I'm looking for a round metal table top, sort of French cafe style. I have the base, which probably had a wooden top, and I'd like to make something useful out of it. Free: Bosch lawn mower - spares or repair (Dronfield S18) Gifted 42d - Bosch Rotak 43 Ergoflex lawn mower for spares or repair. Mains power corded mower 1800W motor, so it's quite powerful. The blade is seized so it may be an easy fix, or not. Collection only.

Free: Light fitting (Dronfield S18) Expired 63d - Opaque glass globe lamp, mains voltage, no bulb. Collection only.

Free: Single bedstead (Dronfield S18) Expired 122d - Black steel bedstead for single bed. Good condition apart from a very small dent. Just to clarify, this is just the headboard, and it attaches to a divan. Collection only, thank you

Free: Brass double bedstead (Dronfield S18) Expired 122d - Brass and iron bedstead to suit 4' 6" double bed. This is just the headboard that attaches to a divan. Collection only, thank you.

Free: LED Christmas lights (Dronfield S18) Gifted 123d - We've got 2 boxes of white LED Christmas lights; one has 120 lights and the other 80. Both have green cables and are suitable for indoor or outdoor use, provided that the transformer plug is indoors. We prefer warm white, so these are surplus.

Free: Drawer runners (Dronfield S18) Expired 202d - Hi, I've got a somewhat random collection of drawer runners that are left over from various projects. They are Screwfix, IKEA and another set that I don't remember what they are. They are all new and unused, but there may be missing pieces, so it's a bit of a lucky dip. I know that many of you are making things for your sheds and garages, so these may be of use.

Free: Lawn edging strip (Dronfield S18) Expired 261d - We've got an unused roll of lawn edging strip. It's 9m long and 80mm high and has been in the shed for years. We'll never use it and it would be a shame to throw it away. If it is of any use to anyone, you are welcome to have it.

Free: Collection of garden tools for repair (Dronfield S18) Expired 261d - I'm clearing out the shed and I have accumulated a collection of broken or tired garden tools. Some came from my late Dad and others are tools we've had, used, broken and put on one side to repair. Over the years, I've fixed a lot of them and these are the duplicates - how many garden forks do I need? I wanted to give these to a charity to repair and pass on to people who need them but I haven't found anyone locally to take them. There are three forks needing handles, an axe head and an ancient rake with a serviceable handle. I'd like them all to go in one lot.

Free: Concrete gravel boards (Dronfield S18) Gifted 1y - I have 8 concrete gravel boards available after replacing a fence. Seven are 183cm long by 29cm high, and one is is 72cm long and 29cm high. They've had fence paint on them but are basically sound. I'd prefer if they all went in one go. Collection only please, they are quite heavy!

Free: Pine cladding strips (Dronfield S18) Gifted 1y - I've got some pine T&G cladding left over from a project many years ago. There are two pieces 2.4m long and 7 pieces 2.1m long, and three offcuts. They are about 90mm wide and 8mm thick, give or take a bit. They are quite dusty, but dry and pretty straight having been stored in a dry garage for a long time. This is interior, decorative wood, not structural and not pressure treated. I'd prefer it all to go as once and to be collected as soon as possible. Thanks

Free: Small offcuts of featheredge boarding (Dronfield S18) Gifted 1y - I've no idea whether anyone will want this, but there seems to be a demand for wood for garden and allotment projects, so here goes. There are 14 pieces of 145mm pressure treated featheredge boarding in verious lengths up to 58cm which may be of use for planters, or similar. I've used pieces like this in the past for shuttering when setting fence posts. Also, I have three odd pieces of very old pine floor board, each about 1m long and 2cm thick. The lengths are about 100mm, 125mm and 150mm, or really 4", 5" and 6". These are not treated. Anyway, these may be of use to someone. I'd like them to go in one lot, and to be collected as soon as possible. Thanks John

Free: Thick timber slats (Dronfield S18) Gifted 1y - I've got quite a lot of what is probably pine or whitewood lengths of timber that used to benches and I was going to upcycle them into a compost bin. It's not going to happen, so I would like to give them away rather than burn them. There are 13 lengths of just under 140cm by 12cm by 3.5cm; one has had a Vee cut out of the end. There are 7 lengths of 132x9x3.5cm (approximately) as well. They have screw holes, small areas of rot, and flaking varnish, but there is plenty of decent timber in there for garden or allotment projects. I'd rather that they all went in one lot. Collection only please.

Free: DVD player (Dronfield S18) Expired 1y - Working Philips DVD player. No longer of use to us as it doesn't have an HDMI output, just the old composite and scart sockets; scart cable is included. Please collect, preferably soon!

Free: Aluminium Dexion type sections (Dronfield S18) Gifted 1y - I've got four 6' lengths of aluminium 'Dexion' type section - I don't know whether it's genuine Dexion or not. Anyway, they are 40mm by 60mm L sections. Ideal for greenhouse staging. To go as one lot.

Free: Kilner type jars (Dronfield S18) Gifted 1y - Five Kilner type jars in two sizes - various makes actually.

Free: Kitchen cupboard parts (Dronfield S18) Expired 1y - I have quite a few bits of white chipboard left over from my B&Q kitchen. It's mostly things like spare shelves, but there are some end panels and a 150mm larder pack that has a damaged piece. It's a shame to put them in the bin and I don't want to hoard them just incase I might use them! So, if they are of use to anyone please send me a message. Thanks, John
