Request: 4 Drawer Filing Cabinet (Carterton OX18) Hi, I am looking for a full size 4 drawer filing cabinet, either solid wood or wood effect, as it's likely to need to live in my living room, if anybody has one lurking in a shed or garage somewhere thst they want to re-home. I will need to arrange for someone within my family to at least help me with collection, due to health problems, so it may take me a bit longer than usual to arrange this, but I am keen to sort out and tidy up my paperwork asap!

Free: Jam Jars, 4 carrier bags full (Carterton OX18) Due to non-collection on two occasions now, these are available again! Some Bonne Maman, some supermarket similar equivalents, some 450-500g honey jars and a few smaller ones that I found useful for the last bits of jam in the pan! Can anyone make use of them? I am fairly close to the centre of Carterton, and can be fairly flexible with regard to collection. Anne.

Request: Plastic Drawer Units (Carterton OX18) Expired Hi everyone. I'm after some plastic drawer units, preferably 4-drawer (or more) to try and tidy up my dressmaking fabrics. I am likely to need 4 or 5 units in total, but I'm not too bothered about the colours or whether they match, so if you have one or more to re-home please let me know.

Request: 3 Drawer Filing Cabinet (Carterton OX18) Expired Hi everyone. This may well be a bit of a longshot, but you never know unless you try! I'm looking for a 3-drawer (not 4 drawer) wood or wood effect filing cabinet if anyone is looking to re-home one please. Thank you for looking.

Free: Drop Leaf Dining Table, solid wood (Carterton OX18) Expired Apologies for the poor photos, but I am restricted for space and struggled to move this table to take photos at all! Can anyone make use of this solid wood (believed to be oak) drop leaf dining table? Measurements are: Open : 36" x 48" (91 x 123 cm) Closed: 36" x 17" (91 x 43 cm) Each leaf: 36 x 16.25" (36 x 41 cm). It will need re-finishing (a job I had fully intended to do myself, but health problems now prevent me from doing this!), but it is solid wood so shouldn't be a difficult job. I am fairly close to Carterton town centre and a bus stop and can be fairly flexible about collection times/days, but am unable to help much with loading it into your vehicle I'm afraid. Thanks for looking.

Free: Laundry Bags (x 5) (Carterton OX18) Expired These are the bags used to keep small items from getting lost in the wash, anything with velcro on to avoid it sticking to everything else, etc. I have a total of 5 to re-home, but you're welcome to take all, some, or just one. I am fairly close to Carterton town centre and a bus stop and can be fairly flexible fir collection.

Free: Pair of off-white curtains (Carterton OX18) Expired These are 100% cotton, unlined but quite heavy cotton, with a small diamond pattern. There is some "yellowing" on one of them from storage, but almost certainly removable with some stain removers help - I just don't have the time or inclination to do it, as I don't need the curtains any longer. I am fairly close to Carterton town centre and a bus stop and can be quite flexible for collection.

Free: Seven Ceramic Piggy Banks (Carterton OX18) Expired Hi, I need to re-home these due to lack of space! They range in overall height from 8.5cm to 25cm (approximately!) and will all need cleaning before displaying, but as far as I can see there's no damage to any of them, although the one at the front, second from left in the photo, is missing its stopper! All to go together and collection only please; they'll be in a strong cardboard box. I'm close to Carterton town centre, as well as a bus stop, and can be very flexible for collection. Anne.

Free: Net Pants for Incontinence Pads (Carterton OX18) Expired I have four unopened packs of five pairs of these in size "L". Having opened a fifth pack and used them for a short time, I believe they should fit approximately sizes 16 to 26 (ladies sizes) but the packs give no information as to this at all! When I was wearing them I was a size 20-22 and they fitted me fine - I just don't get on with them! I am close to Carterton town centre and am around a lot, but if I am going to be out I can always leave them in a bag outside for collection.

Free: Multi Item Trouser / Skirt hangers (Carterton OX18) Gifted Hi, I have six of these to re-home, simply excess to my requirements now, if anyone can make use of them. I am fairly close to Carterton town centre - and am bus stop! - and can be very flexible for collection. All to go together please and collection only. Thanks for looking. Anne

Free: Trouser/Skirt hangers, multi item (Carterton OX18) Expired I have six of these I need to re-home if anyone can use them, excess to my requirements now! All to go together please. I am fairly close to Carterton town centre - and a bus stop! - and reasonably easy to find. I can also be around almost anytime except Friday afternoons for collection. Regards. Anne.

Free: Plastic takeaway containers (Carterton OX18) Expired Can anyone make use of a large carrier bag full of these before they head for my recycling bin? Mostly the rectangular ones, but one or two of the round ones used for sauces. All been through the dishwasher, so they're all clean. It just seems so wasteful to throw them out rather than re-use them, but I already have plenty to keep me going! Collection only, from Carterton (fairly central), date and time can be quite flexible and if I'm not in I can always leave them in the carrier bag, hanging on my front door handle!

Free: Replacement rollers for Scholl Pedi or similar (Carterton OX18) Gifted I bought these and then bought a rechargeable version of the Pedi expecting them all to use the same size rollers - stupid me! Although the box has been opened, this was only to see if these rollers fitted my new device, and they don't, so if anyone can make use of them please get in touch. They are a mixture of fine, medium and coarse grades. I am close to Carterton town centre and am around a lot of the time, but if I am going to be out I can always leave them in a bag outside for collection.

Free: Glass jars (with lids) (Carterton OX18) Expired I have a load of glass jars available for jam making if anyone can make use of them. Mostly Bonne Maman and supermarket copies of the same, but some bigger (900g - 1Kg) ex honey jars. I'm in Carterton, fairly close to the town centre, and will happily leave them in carrier bags outside my front door if I know when you would like to collect and I might be out. Thanks for looking. Anne.

Free: Takeaway containers (Carterton OX18) Expired Hi, these are used, but clean. I have about 20 of the standard oblong ones and half a dozen round ones (the ones they use for sauces, etc). Can anyone make use of them?

Free: Drop leaf dining table (Carterton OX18) Expired Solid wood - oak, I believe - and could do with some tlc, although perfectly usable as it is. Unfortunately, due to various health problems, I am not able to take photos of these, nor to assist with getting it into your vehicle. Thanks for looking. Anne.

Free: Windscreen wiper blades (1 pair) (Carterton OX18) Gifted Hi, These are 20" (51cm) long and are brand new, although they no longer have their packaging - this was badly damaged during a couple of house moves and literally fell apart! Can anyone make use of them before they go to the tip? Collection only from Carterton.

Free: SlimFast Shake Mixes (Carterton OX18) Expired I have on offer six tubs of this, all but one banana flavour open and part used, but all still in date. There are :- 1 x strawberry 1 x blueberry 1 x raspberry and white chocolate 1 x chocolate 2 x banana, one unopened. Unfortunately, although there is no added sugar in any of them, one of the sweeteners used in these is a trigger for migraine for me, so that may also be a problem for some others. If anyone wants to give them a try without the initial cost, these could save someone quite a lot of money. All to go as one please.

Free: Polystyrene box with lid (Carterton OX18) Expired Hi, Can anyone make use of this polystyrene box before I throw it out? It came with a recent meat delivery and the internal measurements are 35.5cm x 26.5cm x 17cm deep. Thanks for looking. Anne.

Free: Reading Glasses, 9 pairs (Carterton OX18) Expired Hi, These are the cheap ones, mostly bought in Poundland, all +2.00 strength (I now need stronger!). 9 pairs in total, mostly suitable for women rather than men, although one or two pairs are pretty unisex.

Free: Rigid Boot for easing plantar fasciitis (Carterton OX18) Expired Hi, This is intended for overnight use to help ease plantar fasciitis if anyone can make use of it? It's a fairly large size - my feet are a large size 8 to give you some idea.

Free: Backstretcher (Carterton OX18) Gifted This is a rechargeable item, working perfectly and has only ever been used twice! Unfortunately, I don't have the floor space to use it, but I also have too much of a problem getting down onto it, and then trying to get up off it again, so have finally decided to let it go to someone who can actually make use of it. I'm close to Carterton town centre and around quite a lot of the time for collection, just let me know when you can collect.

Free: Scholl pedi, battery operated (Carterton OX18) Gifted This was a replacement I bought for one that had worn out and then I invested in a rechargeable alternative! It's never been opened, but comes with the three rollers (coarse, medium and fine) that I already had and extra batteries. The rollers have all been thoroughly cleaned and disinfected. Anyone interested, before I bin it?

Free: Stocking, loads of! (Carterton OX18) Gifted Hi, I have a carrier bag full of stockings, mostly only ever worn once before being washed and stored away (all in pairs, but many different types and a few different colours, including fuchsia pink and electric blue and at least one pair of fishnet ones!). Some are the hold-up type, others will need a suspender belt. There are even 9 pairs still in their original packaging and never worn! Oh, and there's also a suspender belt, again barely worn, label says size 12-14. Can anyone use these before I bin them?

Request: Dressmakers Dummy (Carterton OX18) Expired Hi, This is probably a bit of a longshot, but does anyone have a dressmakers dummy lurking in a garage or loft somewhere that they no longer use? It needs to be adjustable to sizes 18-22, but I really don't mind if it needs cleaning up and / or doesn't look very pretty, as long as it does the job and is adjustable. I can collect most days, after about midday. Thanks for looking. Anne.

Request: Dining Table, solid wood, extendable (Carterton OX18) Received Hi, this may be a bit of a longshot, but I'm looking for an extendable, solid wood dining table to enable me to use my sewing machine. I currently have two different sized drop leaf ones, but they're really not stable enough for me to use my sewing machine on. It doesn't need to look particularly pretty, just serviceable and sturdy; when I use it as a dining table I can always put a table cloth on it - and eventually possibly re-sand and re-finish it. I can collect most days after about 11am, including evenings and weekends, to suit you if you happen to have one you need to re-home. Thanks for looking.

Free: TV Unit (Carterton OX18) Gifted This is a smoked glass and chrome unit measuring 120cm (47") wide x 45cm (18") deep x 52cm (21") high. Can anyone make use of it? I'm afraid it has to be collection only and will require two strong people to lift it, as well as a fairly large vehicle to transport it. I am unable to physically help with the lifting due to health problems. The unit is currently sitting in my garden as I simply don't have the space for it indoors, and unfortunately I don't have anything to cover it to protect it from the weather.

Request: Extra Large Plant Pots (Outdoor) (Carterton OX18) Received Hi, I'm really hoping someone may have some of these to re-home! I need quite a few (at least 30cm diameter) for my poor fuchsias, which are fast becoming pot-bound! I'm not bothered what colour they are, nor what they're made of, as long as they are still usable and I'll take as many as I can get hold of. I am able to collect almost any day, after about 11am. Thank you for looking. Anne.

Free: Oven Shelves (4) (Carterton OX18) Expired Hi, these four oven shelves have been retained from a 'dead' Neff double built in oven. They measure (at the outer edges) 45.5cm wide x 33cm deep (17.5 x 13 inches). Can anyone make use of them before they go to the tip? Collection only from Carterton.

Free: Geberit Toilet Descaler (Carterton OX18) Expired Hi, Does anyone out there have one of these Geberit all-singing, all-dancing fancy toilets that needs special descaling fluid every so often? I have had one removed and replaced recently and still have one (extremely expensive!) bottle of the descaler if anyone can make use of it. This is NOT for use in a standard toilet; if you have one of the Geberit toilets you will know what I'm talking about.
