Plastic patio chair (Near East/Union & Marquette)
Looking for a green (or other dark color) plastic patio chair for a Halloween display. Doesn’t matter if it’s muddy, cracked, paint splattered, faded, bleached, etc. Just needs to be intact and able to hold a few pounds. Do you have one in your back yard, garage, or shed that’s just taking up space? I’ll come take it off your hands! Would prefer to pick up on the east side or central part of Madison. Thanks for looking!
