Free: IKEA EKTORP 2-Seater Sofa (Heeley S8) Gifted - This is a (now) third hand sofa, gifted to me originally with cream covers that had some cat claw damage. I bought brand new covers for it from IKEA but despite them being labelled as removable and washable, they went a bit crinkly (see pic'). Unfortunately one arm has a small stain on it that I have not been able to get out (see pic’). Whilst they are also marked 'DO NOT IRON', I find that they iron perfectly well though. These covers are included. You can download the full instructions for putting the sofa together on the IKEA Web site: This sofa is collection only; I do not drive, sorry. It's dismantled, ready to transport though (see pic’).

Request: IKEA Hatten Table (Heeley S8) - This type of table was discontinued a few years ago but I'm hoping someone may have one stored away somewhere. It's clear plastic (sometimes coloured) with metal legs and the table top lifts off, so it can be used as a tray.

I am not able to list them all, nor can I have them 'picked over' - successful person must take all items. Thank you.

Request: Mirrors (Southey Green S5) Expired - Looking for unwanted mirrors (the hang on the wall kind) in reasonable condition. I don't mind a bit of discolouration or chipped frames.

Thank you. Request: IKEA Kallax (2x4) (Southey Green S5) Expired - If anyone has one of these that they no longer use, I could give it a good home.

Free: Large Box of Car Boot/Charity Shop Items (Southey Green S5) Gifted - Various items; too many to list but, reasonable quality. Requester must take full box; I cannot separate, discuss individual items, have anyone over to look through the box first or ‘hold until next week’ etc. Thank you for understanding. Collection only. You will need a vehicle - box is too large to carry (unless you are very local to me). I don’t drive so cannot deliver - sorry.

Free: Wood (Various) (Southey Green S5) Expired - Old fencing, pallets etc. Ready to be taken ASAP. Easy access for collection only. Would prefer it taken as one lot, but if you want to just take a couple of bits, that's also OK (which means the picture here may not be 100% accurate but message me to check) thank you.

Free: Old Carpets (Southey Green S5) Gifted - I have three old carpets, suitable for allotment/garden use. 2 hard-wearing, good quality carpets; approx 4m x 3m (grey/brown) 1 budget quality carpet; approx 3m x 3m (black)* Ready to be taken up now.

Free: ikea hemnes day bed (Southey Green S5) Gifted - Had this a few years and it's still going strong - has enjoyed the expected amount of kid-related wear and tear, including a few knocks and sticker-decorating (see pic'). Some of the slats have gone but doesn’t affect functionality; one of the sides had a recent accident when it collided with a small person’s foot but the repair has held and cannot be seen. It’s a really useful piece of furniture; heaps of generous storage in the 3 roomy drawers underneath, can be used as a single or double guest bed or as a sofa (which is what I mainly use it for). It’s just a shade too big for my tiny house. Collection only. x2 mattresses included. Comes apart for transport.
