Wooden cabinet-desk w compartments (1075 Valencia Avenue)
Wooden cabinet or desk or with one shelf in the center (for a keyboard?) and six shelves on each side when the two side doors swing open. Measures 35” high x 14-3/4” deep x 49-1/2” wide. The person who put it out said it was new. Appears in excellent condition except for some dust. It was part of a large collection of items left out. Only this desk and the small side table remain. It is outside the middle dumpster shed (of three sheds) in the parking lot between Valencia Avenue, off South Mary Avenue, snd and Madera Avenue, off West Iowa in Sunnyvale. The parking lot is behind the Crosswalk Church parking lot. It is easier to enter through the Valencia Avenue end, next to 1075 Valencia Avenue, where you will see the church when you enter Valencia Avenue. The parking gate is open until about 4:00 pm on Tuesday for trash collection and Wednesday for food scrap collection. Please include your available pickup time if you want me to let you in the parking gate. I’m available mid-afternoon onward.

Medical Grade Oximeter (Middlefield & San Antonio Road)
Would anyone have a medical grade oximeter that I can borrow for one day so that I can do a vigorous exercise test? This can be either a finger, or bracelet, but should be a Nonin, or Accumed oximeter. I'm a lung patient that needs to be titrated for O2 during exercise. Hospital will only do a 6 min walk test, and overnight sleep test, but advises they could do the exercise test if I want to spend the money on a stress test which I don't need. Just need titration for exercise so that I know what my O2 flow rate is. Only need the Oximeter for one day.

Wooden desk (new) & low side table (1075 Valencia Avenue)
Note: Today (Tuesday April 14), the junk haulers picked up most of the items I posted and photographed. Only the wooden desk (which the owner-dumper said was new), the white upholstered chair, and the low side table (which shows wear) were not taken by the junk haulers. The old post: Furniture, appliances, bedding, household items A neighbor just moved and left out a huge collection of household furniture and appliances. This includes a wooden desk with plastic top,, cleaning supplies, a mesh wastebasket, two floor lamps (an IKEA lamp with plastic shade, and a brass lamp with pleated fabric shade and small glass table attached at a chair or sofa level), three twin foam pieces, each with a fabric cover for a twin bed, a spin bucket for a mop, and a mop (detachable for washing) with pole, a floor fan on a stand, a wooden side table (photographed upside down), one large and one very large rolling suitcase, a large metal step-open trash can, a mesh metal wastebasket, floor mats, a plastic foldable foot rest for a desk, and more that is buried. The desk might have been a chest of drawers because it has two center shelves and a wooden strip at the base, but these can be removed to use as a desk. They are outside the middle dumpster shed (of three sheds) in the parking lot between Valencia Avenue, off South Mary Avenue, snd and Madera Avenue, off West Iowa in Sunnyvale. The parking lot is behind the Crosswalk Church parking lot. It is easier to enter through the Valencia Avenue end, next to 1075 Valencia Avenue, where you will see the church when you enter Valencia Avenue.

There is also an upholstered white wooden chair covered with pillows outside the dumpster shed closest to the Madera Avenue end of the parking lot.
