Free: Large White Tiles with a Complicated Past (Bridge of Allan FK9) We have a box of large white tiles. At some point in their life, they were perfectly respectable tiles. Then someone painted them. Then… someone tiled over them. So while they’re not really suitable for actual tiling (unless you’re into extreme adhesion challenges), they are absolutely brimming with “character". Potential alternative uses include: Smash them artistically and create dramatic mosaic masterpieces. Use as plant pot bases. Garden stepping stones (abstract edition). Cat food bowl mats (for very stylish cats). Doorstops. Patio “rustic chic” experiments. Props for a low-budget DIY horror film. Therapy tiles – write your frustrations on them and dramatically throw them away (safely!) They’re solid, white(ish), and full of mystery layers — a bit like an archaeological dig, but flatter. Free to anyone brave, creative, or slightly unhinged. Collection only. Please bring your own containers and your sense of adventure.

Free: Vintage Kitchen Tiles (Bridge of Allan FK9) FREE TO A GOOD HOME – Vintage Kitchen Tiles (with a bit of “character”). We have very carefully removed our kitchen tiles… by which we mean they are now liberated and ready for their next adventure. Approx. 4 inch x 4 inch. Plenty available. Previously loved. Some grout still enthusiastically attached (you’ll need to give them a little spa treatment). Perfect for crafty types, mosaic makers, shed upgraders, or anyone who enjoys a gentle grout-removal meditation session. Please bring your own containers — we’ve done the tile liberation, you can handle the transport logistics. Collection only. First come, first tiled. 🧱

Request: Steel framed polytunnel (strong to withstand weather) (Bridge of Allan FK9) We are on the search for a strong polytunnel, greenhouse or wooden shed with large windows (potting shed) to grow our veggies.

Request: Cozy Fire Pit for Our Garden (Bridge of Allan FK9) Hi there! We're on the lookout for a fire pit to enjoy cozy evenings in our garden. If you have an old one you no longer need, we’d be super grateful! We’re open to any type and can come pick it up. Feel free to send us a photo if you have one. Thanks a lot!"

Request: Pitchfork for a Weak but Willing Composter! 🪱 (Bridge of Allan FK9) Hello lovely Freeglers! I’m on the hunt for a lightweight pitchfork — something like the one in the photo — to help me mix my compost. At the moment, I’m wrestling with a standard garden fork that weighs more than I do, and quite frankly, it’s winning. If you’ve got a spare pitchfork gathering dust in a shed somewhere, I’d love to give it a new home (and save my poor arms in the process!). Many thanks — from the weak but determined composter! 💪😅

Request: Cat Carrier (for Eric, who has Opinions) (Bridge of Allan FK9) Received Hello lovely Freeglers 🐾 We’re on the lookout for a cat carrier for our cat Eric. He is fluffy, handsome, and absolutely convinced he should never have to walk anywhere himself. The carrier doesn’t need to be fancy – just clean, secure, and capable of containing one mildly dramatic cat on short journeys. Bonus points if it has previously survived side-eye, loud sighing, or a cat who feels deeply wronged. Happy to collect locally. Eric says thank you in advance (though he will pretend he didn’t). 😼

Request: Random Laminate & Underlay for a Hallway Makeover! 🏡 (Bridge of Allan FK9) Received I’m trying to piece together a hallway floor using whatever laminate and underlay I can find — a bit of a patchwork project, but I’m embracing the “quirky rustic” look! If you’ve got any leftover bits, odd packs, or random planks of laminate lurking in the shed or garage, I’d love to give them a new home (and hopefully create something vaguely level!). Many thanks from the optimistic DIYer armed with hope, a hammer, and mismatched flooring! 🪚😊
