Free: Packing/Moving boxes (Bamford S33) Promised Having just moved in, we have about 60+ cardboard boxes which we used for packing. They are in serviceable condition as we recycled the knackered ones as we unpacked. If you're moving and need some boxes this is the place to come.

Free: Dining chairs, wood and rattan. (Bamford S33) Dining chairs. Solid wood with rattan seats. 2 with arms, both in good condition. 8 without arms, 5 are in good condition and 3 seem to be the ones most used as the rattan shows more bowing that the others, although I think I would describe them as fair condition.

Free: Wardrobe, Ikea. Optional disassembly. (Bamford S33) Promised I have a white Ikea wardrobe to rehome. It's in fairly good nick and has an added set of bars to act as a shoe rack. The pic showing the doors is without the doors attached (it was easier to shift around). The doors are easy to attach and I can tell you how to do that. So you won't have the gap at the top as you can see in the picture. I can disassemble it for you it that helps with transport. Size is 191 H x 78 W x 50 D

Free: Lights for either side of a mirror (Bamford S33) Gifted 2 IKEA lights for putting either side of a mirror. They are on a single plug and have a single inline switch to control them both. Both working and in good order with bulbs (working afaik) in each position.

Free: Mattress, single (Bamford S33) Expired I have a so-so mattress up for grabs. I don't know if it has a fire label but I can check. It's not dirty or anything and I think it's fairly comfortable, but it's nothing special. Would also work well for sound insulation - so if you play in a band or anything.... Just offering as I hate to dump stuff. Standard single size. Please give an idea of when you can collect and also give a phone number for me to reply on (due to previous no shows). I may not respond straight away in order to give everyone a chance to see the post, even if they're not online all the time.

Free: Mattress single (Bamford S33) Gifted I have a mattress up for grabs - it's quite a comfy one and was not cheap when I bought it (which was 2018, I think). I don't know if it has a fire label but I can check. It's not dirty or anything and it give's a comfortable night's sleep. Standard single size. Please give an idea of when you can collect and also give a phone number for me to reply on (due to previous no shows). I may not respond straight away in order to give everyone a chance to see the post, even if they're not online all the time.

Free: Wardrobe Ikea. (Bamford S33) Expired I have a white, Ikea wardrobe to rehome. It's in reasanoble condition BUT it would need to sit so that its left side is against the wall. We had to chop the moulding off of the left side of the top in order to fit it into a space (my daughter says I measured wrong but I'm blaming the Ikea specification). If you're not going to see the left side (or don't mind it just painted!) then no problem. I can disassemble it for you it that helps with transport. The size is: 191 H x 89 W x 54 D Please give an idea of when you can collect and also give a phone number for me to reply on (due to previous no shows). I may not respond straight away in order to give everyone a chance to see the post, even if they're not online all the time.

Free: Drawer unit (Bamford S33) Withdrawn I have a drawer unit to rehome. It's quite old fashioned (but could be good for a makeover?) and is in natural wood. I think it's quite good quality but I don't know anything about its history. Size; 72 H x 131 W x 46 D Please give an idea of when you can collect and also give a phone number for me to reply on (due to previous no shows).

Free: Wardrobe, Ducal. (Bamford S33) Expired I have a Ducal wardrobe to rehome. It's quite a nice quality thing and is made from solid, real wood as opposed to chipboard etc. It's been taken apart by the removal people who put it into storage. One of the pics shows what it will look like when assembled. Now, here's the thing... it's not a flat pack wardrobe. It should never have been dismantled. As a result there is some small damage. Boy, was I angry! There are pics of the damage, zoomed out and zoomed in for each of the 3 damage sites. The damage is fairly minor except for a chip out of one of the sides. It's the left side and at the bottom/back so could well not show, depending how the wardrobe is placed. It can be fixed (I don't have the wood chipped out tho), results depending on the effort and skill of the repairer, and it doesn't need to be fixed for the wardrobe to be sturdy. I would suggest that assembling this is not as straightforward as an Ikea flatpack so maybe this is something for the more experienced DIY'er. I can tell you which bits are which and how they go together, but some fettling could be called for. I am also happy to assemble it for you, but then you would need to be able to transport the thing whole. The assembled unit is 191 H x 99 W x 54 D. The largest single piece is 177 x 90. Please give an idea of when you can collect and also give a phone number for me to reply on (due to previous no shows).

Free: Brita jug plus 3 filters (Southdown AL5) Gifted The filters are unopened and the jug is quite new. We just got sick of using it so opted for chalky tea instead. I think the extra chalk must be good for the bones because since quitting with the filtering I've grown 3 new kneecaps! Shan't tell you where tho - a girl must have her secrets!

Free: Aero-Bed Matress with integral pump - leaks (Southdown AL5) Gifted This is a double AeroBed mattress with integral pump but it has a small leak (see pic). I've repaired similar leaks on it before so it can be done. Failing that, the pump may be useful to someone.

Free: Dressing table (Southdown AL5) Expired White. Condition ok but not great. Draws are a little reluctant so could maybe do with some work.

Free: Wood chopping stump (Southdown AL5) Gifted Pine tree stump for chopping wood on. It's reasonably heavy so doesn't shift about when chopping.

Free: Thule Ocean 700 roofbox (Southdown AL5) Gifted Dims... Please reply with a phone number (due to previous no shows) and an idea of when you could collect.

Request: Clothes Iron (Southdown AL5) Received Anyone have a clothes iron that they don't need any more? I would like one for some shed projects so it doesn't need to be in good nick. It feels a bit wasteful to buy a new one for such scrappy use. Last time I used the one we use for clothes and the missus was _not_ best pleased. Thanks for reading!

Free: Wetsuit, mens, shorty (Southdown AL5) Gifted Mens Osprey shorty wetsuit. Not brilliant quality - was a summer holiday at the seaside purchase. I think it's got plenty of life still left in it as it wasn't worn much, it was carefully rinsed after use and it spent a lot of time under the bed. It doesn't have any size info but it was snug on me and I am (or was) 6'1" and when I wore it I was a bit "portly". Now, however, there's no way I could get this done up around my generous girth and even if I could I would probably seriously scare any children in the vicinity. It's just not worth the risk. Please responds with a phone number (due to previous no shows) and give me an idea of when you could collect. I may not respond straight away in order to give everyone a chance to see the post - even those without instant web access.
