Free: Several Plastic plant pots (Hillsborough S6) Gifted Can you use about 20 plastic plant pots (Read on below if you want more than 20) All of these are about 7inch/18cm diameter. So a reasonable size. Collection of these is from S6 Hillsborough near Bus interchange. The pots come from a community garden in Hillsborough where currently we have a lot more of these spare. If you want more pots for your own use , and /or if you are a community garden/organisation who wants a good supply of pots then I may be able to point you in the right direction. I am just trying these first 20 pots on here, to see what the response is like.

Free: Porcelaine pens - for painting on ceramics (Hillsborough S6) Gifted 15 Porcelaine pens (4 of them are metallic), and some textile markers. These were found in a cupboard I was clearing out. They work, but I'm not very creative, so I've not used them. And apart from the info below, I don't know much more about them!! The pens can be used to paint/draw on ceramics. And you can then bake the item in the oven to "set" the colour. There are about 15 porcelain pens, and 6 textile markers. There were seven 6 in/15 cm white tiles with them, and you are welcome to those if you want something to try them out on! Hope someone can use them.

Free: Car Mats for Skoda Fabia 2007-2014 (Hillsborough S6) Gifted Genuine Skoda mats - Carpet style. The car had only done low mileage. Front mats are in good condition (better than they appear in the photo). And the back mats are like new. And the driver was a non-smoker, who didn't have dogs! If you can use them, let me know. They fit the 2007-2014 model (might fit another car, I don't know). It's difficult to know who's really interested. I tend to pick a Freegler who tells me why they want the item (or in some other way gives me a clear idea they are genuine! ). Or to put it another way: I'm unlikely to reply to those who simply say : "is this available". Thanks for reading. Collection would be from Sheffield S: Hillsborough/Walkley area (near Morrisons and Bus interchange)

Free: Playpen for small child (Hillsborough S6) Gifted Child's play pen. You'll need to "build it", but all the bits are there. I don't have the instructions though, sorry!

At the moment it is packed away, but I reckon the dimensions are: Height 65 cm / 26 inches: Width 104 cm / 41 inches : Length 180 cm / 70 inches. I've looked on the internet,but can't see this exact model . I've used a photo from the internet.

Free: 8 hard backed envelopes - used ! (mostly C5 size) (Hillsborough S6) Gifted Can anyone make use of these hard-backed envelopes? 1 of them is C4/A4 size, the rest are C5/A5 size. All of them are recycled (ie I've received items in them), so may have part of a label on the front. I've kept them for a while, but really have no use for them. It seems a shame to put them in the blue bin. If you'd like them let me know. Collection will be from S6 Hillsborough: near to Morrisons and the bus interchange on Langsett Road.

Free: Kitchen bin 45/50 litre (Hillsborough S6) Gifted This is still available. I contacted a couple of people who expressed interest, but they didn't reply. So I'm reposting it. Kitchen roll-top bin ( 75cm tall, 35cm wide, 33 cm deep) It's good quality (Addis, I think), but had it some years , so there are a few scuffs on it. And a small crack at one corner. see photos. But it's robust (and I've scrubbed it clean!). I use 45l or 50Litre bin liners in it (or a black bag!) Can anyone use it in their house or garden: I've no use for it.
