Wooden cheese boxes x7 & 1 larger crafts box (Nash Mills WD4)
These are just from supermarket camemberts so not very sturdy. Was going to use them to package little cakes but used something else in the end. Could be a crafy project for children? Found at the back of the cupboard so going for recycling unless someone can use them.

Book stand plastic for lightweight books (Nash Mills WD4)
Expired
Not used much, as I bought it for cook books, but ours are weighty tomes. As you can see, it will hold a heavy book up, but cannot hold it open. The open book one with fewer pages. Suitable for displaying books or perhaps for using with lighter wight books.

Football not used much screwfix (Nash Mills WD4)
Probably came free with a screwfix order. Not used much. Been in the shed. Can't guarantee that it still inflates fully, but I don't see why it shouldn't.

Play kitchen items (Nash Mills WD4)
Gifted
These have all been used outside. Been in the shed for ages. The microwave and jug are wind up and do still turn. Also imcludes watering can and small plant pot. Suitable for use in outside play kitchen or sandpit, i would imagine.

Conference bag for folders, papers etc. Like new (Nash Mills WD4)
Zip works. Comes with shoulder strap. Was probably used at the conference and then put away.

Free:
Cereal and liquid containers (Nash Mills WD4)
Two are designed to hold a bag of meusli and have a lift up flap. We never got the hang of this and have used them for keeping open bags of noodles and so on in. The other two are quite old and very solid. I believe that they are for keeping reconstituted milk from dried milk in. Slim, so fit in the fridge door. The lid is quite a fiddle to fit on as it fits quite tightly, so no use if you want to frequently open and close it. Has a little flap for pouring.

Old wooden arrows for ? garden use (Nash Mills WD4)
Gifted
Putting these on here in case anyone wants them before they are recycled. Definitely not suitable for use with a bow. Mostly broken or unable to have new flights or tips fitted. Metal tips are rusty. Could be useful for staking plants as the metal tip will go through clay or stones.

Metal beer bottle caps. Assorted. (Nash Mills WD4)
Nothing exciting in here, i think, just bottle caps. Offering as they are usually collected for craft projects.

Free:
Old hanging baskets. A but rusty. Plant protection? (Nash Mills WD4)
Not sure if they will stand up to having heavy plants in them as a bit rusty. Might be good for protective cover against birds or squirrels?

More than in this photo! Various sizes- from pasta sauce/jam jar to condiment/chilli paste jar. probably a few extra as well, if you can use them- although probably small. more jars than in the photo! All washed but most gave label residue so are a bit sticky. You are welcome to some, or just the size that you can use. The small jars are lovely for jammy gifts...

Free:
Old corks. Mainly from port or sherry bottles (Nash Mills WD4)
Gifted
Used to use these for the tops of bottles of home made liqueurs but seem to have been given far too many. The corks can be shredded and used as mulch if you don't want the plastic bit.

Bricks or paving blocks for gardening project (Nash Mills WD4)
Expired
Started a path with a few bricks left over from paving- and ran out before the end! If you have a few left over, or even see a local skip full of bricks; I would be really interested. Rustic (old) and broken bricks are fine. Close to WD4 would be best, as these are heavy.

A4 files and plastic pockets (Nash Mills WD4)
Gifted
Given to me by a friend to take into work (where they will be used). There are so many that I thought I would offer them here first. About 10 A4 ring binder files, and a very large bundle of A4 plastic pockets- the sort that you put one or two sheets in and then fut into a ring binder. If anyone can make use of some or all of these, please come and collect. Will be going into work next week. We are Kings Langley rather than Nash Mills.

From a garden trailer. The middle bit (spindle?) has been lost, so it needs something to replace that if it is to be used. We are Kings Langley rather than Nash Mills.

Empty 5 litre plastic container x6 (Nash Mills WD4)
Expired
From shower gel, washing up liquid, toilet cleaner etc. So not suitable for food/drink but could be used in the garden or for making up cleaning solutions. All from eco friendly products. Note that these are about the same height as a 2 litre milk container, but obviously have a larger body and are much more sturdy. Quite a few available that i can mske available over the next few weeks if you would like a few.

Outdoor lights (Nash Mills WD4)
Gifted
2 carriage style lights and one with a motion sensor. The carriage lights take up to 60w. the metal case needs some work- see photos. The sensor light is pretty bright even on standby, and apparently takes 8w on standby. All three will need wiring as the wires were used for the new lights we have fitted. If you can use these, either one or all, please let me know when you can collect. It would be interesting to know how they will be used.

Old roofing corrugated green (Nash Mills WD4)
Gifted
This looked lovely on the roof of a pagoda but it is no longer green or corrugated from being in the sun and rain. Might be useful to cover a wood store? There are probably two big pieces in reasonable condition and the others are smaller or have some tears. Will have to be gone by next weekend.

Free:
Playhouse door (Nash Mills WD4)
Expired
The door has no window left but the wood seems pretty sturdy. The sides of the playhouse are also available of gou would like to try using those. Only built like fence panels so they might fall apart if you try to move them, but possibly worth a try. Roof and floor are completely gone. The whole lot will be off to the recycling centre next weekend so shout now if you would like it
