Free: Custom built bookcases (Tunbridge Wells S. TN2) Two beech faced mdf (we think) bookcases, built to fit the need we had at the time. One has all fixed shelves, the other has some adjustability at the top. Apparently 223x54.5x25.3 cm. (88x21.5x10 ins) The screws have been disguised with plugs so probably not easy to take apart, however, they are very light to carry.

Free: Plastic coated garden border stuff (Southborough TN4) Can anyone make use of these short lengths of plastic coated garden bordering? We used to use it to protect seedling from cats but not needed any more.

Free: Strimmer(?) blades (Tunbridge Wells S. TN2) We think these are from a long gone backpack petrol strimmer. Have been in the greenhouse for many years but look in good condition. Any use to anyone?

Free: Strawberry plants (Southborough TN4) Gifted I’m halfway through digging up all my strawberry plants as the bed they’re in doesn’t get enough sun any more. Some of them are quite old now but I know I bought some new plants just a couple of years ago. Estimate is 20+ plants. I’ve literally just dug them up and shoved them in grape boxes so they’ll need collecting soon. They’ve been watered. Ideal for an allotment, probably.

Free: Cushion inserts (Southborough TN4) Expired Can anyone make use of these before I bin them?

Free: 1700 P-shaped bath panel, small crack (Southborough TN4) Expired Brand new acrylic P-shaped bath front panel on offer. It has a tiny crack on the lower rim and because of that we were given a new one. See photos. Size details on label in photo. Will be going on other sites too for swift collection.

Free: Bunk beds (Tunbridge Wells S. TN2) Gifted Old but solid bunk beds mainly used for (now grown up) visiting grandchildren so still fairly sound. One broken slat on one of the bases. Will be dismantling soon.

168d

Free: Sedum stem (Southborough TN4) Gifted I accidentally broke this stem off my pink sedum. Would anyone like it to see if they can get it to grow? There is a tiny bit of root on it. It’s in water at the moment.

243d

Free: Dense foam (Southborough TN4) Gifted Does anyone want a block of dense foam? We had it for when our mattress was too short for our bedframe. It’s 6’ x 10” x 6” old school, about 183 x 25.5 x 15 cm in new money. Some of the protective mesh is a bit knackered (photo) but it’s essentially intact. We do have a dog so there may be a few hairs but the foam’s been under a mattress protector all the time we’ve had it.

Request: Hanging rail (Southborough TN4) Expired We're going to be having some building work done and will be losing a wardrobe for a few weeks, so we need a hanging rail if anyone has one, please. Will probably reFreegle it once we've done with it! Thanks very much.

294d

Request: Picture rail (Southborough TN4) Expired We're putting up picture rail and are just one metre short! Does anyone have any spare lying around please? The stuff we bought was the basic mdf one from B&Q. Thanks very much.

321d

Free: Magnetic tape (Southborough TN4) Gifted Magnetic tape used for secondary glazing panels and the like (teaspoon for scale). Quite old, so I can’t vouch for its adhesiveness any more but perhaps worth a go? Otherwise will be binned.

322d

Free: Plastic storage bags (Southborough TN4) Gifted Three bags from bedding bought over time (the zip on the one on the left doesn’t work but might still be useful?), plus a space saver storage bag but although the seal works I can’t vouch for its airtightness. All good for keeping the dust off, at least. Any interest before I bin?

322d

Free: Under desk filing drawers (Southborough TN4) Gifted Does anyone want slightly battered but structurally sound under-desk filing drawers? Been in the garage so need a clean. 39cm d x 45 w x 62 h

325d

Free: Compatible Canon printer inks (Southborough TN4) Gifted These were for a Canon Pixma MG something (forgotten the number) which died last year. Two yellow C-526 and one magenta C-526., unopened.

Free: Apple and pear prunings (Southborough TN4) Expired In black bin ready to go to tip, but offering in case anyone wants some kindling? May be some pyracantha in there too so possibly some thorns but I think we can spot it ok.

1y

Free: Weighing scales (Southborough TN4) Gifted Old-fashioned scales with mismatched dish. The lead on the tray gets the balance correct. I used these until recently but we don’t have room any more. Any use to anyone? Need a bit of a clean too.

Free: Empty candle pots (Southborough TN4) Gifted Seems a shame to throw these away as they’re quite pretty. Any use to anyone?

1y

Free: Breast Daisies (Southborough TN4) Gifted These are very old breast daisies from La Senza (remember them?!). I think I used one pair but the rest are untouched. No idea if they’ll still stick but I had an experimental prod and there seemed to be a little bit of adhesive still there. Anyone want them before I bin them?

1y

Free: Photo boxes (Southborough TN4) Expired Before I bin/recycle, can anyone make use of these cassette style photo storage boxes? I have five to go.

1y

Free: Old remote controls (Southborough TN4) Gifted Does anyone want these, perhaps for toys, or spares? Have been in garage but some of them probably still work. Refer to go as one lot, if possible.

1y

Free: Bath filler (Southborough TN4) Gifted We obviously got this at a sale of some sort and then never used it. Has been in the garage and is now a little pitted. Assume it works though. Will be going on other sites.

1y

Free: Cassette tape storage boxes (Southborough TN4) Gifted Anyone want some vintage cassette tape storage boxes? I’ve had them since the eighties but have finally moved my cassettes into a better place. The large one doesn’t have a handle any more, and the dividers are a bit iffy but they all function perfectly well. Need a good clean, though, as they’ve been on a dusty shelf for years.

1y

Free: TV/monitor stand (Southborough TN4) Gifted TV stand, glass base, width reduced to work with 22” monitor. Will work with VESA fittings but probably not with older brackets.

1y

Request: Dog/puppy pen (Southborough TN4) Expired Long shot, but does anyone have a dog pen they don't need any more please? Our dog's just had surgery and is hating the cage - we're hoping a pen might make him happier, especially in this hot weather. Thanks very much.

1y

Request: Ladies bike (Southborough TN4) Received Long shot, but I'm looking for a usable ladies bike. Mum's temporary carer doesn't have transport and we thought a bike would be good for her to get around. She's quite short, hence not being able to borrow mine! Many thanks, if anyone has one.

1y

Request: Index cards (Southborough TN4) Expired I’m looking for some index cards like this please, if anyone has any unwanted ones? Thanks very much.

1y

Free: Sony speakers (Southborough TN4) Gifted These have been in the garage but were working when last used. Tape measure for scale - they’re 23cm tall. Need a bit of a clean.
