Request: Brown or Black Fascia Boards (New Tupton S42) If anyone is having the brown or black fascia boards replaced on their house, could you please consider gifting them to me rather than taking them to the tip? I need them for a garden project, so condition isn't a high priority. I can collect pretty much anytime. Thanks for reading.

Free: Polystyrene Boxes (New Tupton S42) I was gifted these on Freegle / Freecycle a year ago for packing frozen and refrigerated food when we moved house. I've also used them during holiday periods when I had limited refrigerator space for all the food for guests. These kept the food protected and cool outside the kitchen door. But I no longer need them, so am offering them on here. Size: 15.5" long x 12" wide x 11" high. Collection from New Tupton.

6d

Free: Sensor Lightbulbs (New Tupton S42) Gifted I have 2 sensor lightbulbs which are no longer needed. Both are regular bayonet fitting and are 75 watt equivalent. These are wonderful for outside during these dark evenings and nights, because they come on automatically when it gets dark, and when the sensor detects light in the morning, it switches off. I'd prefer to give these away to 2 people, and will wait to offer them until Thursday evening to give more people a chance to see and request them. Collection from New Tupton.

13d

Free: Double Mattress (Wisewood S6) Gifted I'm advertising this mattress as new - used because it's only been slept on for 3 nights before giving up as being too hard. It is VERY firm, but could be made more comfortable with a topper. There are no tears, marks or stains. There is a faint cigarette smoke smell as it was moved to a conservatory where people smoked, but I'm confident this will disappear after a bit of airing. Collection ONLY from the ground floor of a house in Malin Bridge.

18d

Free: Cotton Traders snow boots (New Tupton S42) Expired Brown suede upper, fleece inside, zipper with velcro strap closing, good deep tread. Size 8. VGC. I'd love these to go to someone who's sleeping rough or who works outside. Collection from New Tupton, but delivery may be possible by arrangement.

Free: Various lightbulbs (New Tupton S42) Expired I'm sorting through my (too large!) collection of lightbulbs. Currently, I have this selection. From left to right: 15w coloured bulb, 25w (?) large bayonet candle, 25w small screw candle, 2 x 40w (?) large bayonet standard. Collection from New Tupton or may be able to deliver by arrangement.

47d

Free: 5 Flush to Ceiling Light Fixtures (New Tupton S42) Expired I had these ceiling lights removed today. All have working bulbs, plus there is an extra bulb. I've dusted them, but they'll need a good clean. The first photo shows what they're like in situ in the hallway. Collection from New Tupton, or I may be able to deliver by arrangement.

53d

Free: Child's Plastic Table (New Tupton S42) Expired We no longer need this child's table, so it's free for the taking. It's in good used condition, but probably needs a clean after being outside all summer. Collection from New Tupton S42.

54d

Free: Toddler urinal (New Tupton S42) Expired Clean used condition. The orange tongue spins around and provides a 'target'. It has hanging holes on the back. I obtained this from Freecycle, but my grandson prefers a potty. Collection from New Tupton.

56d

Free: Foam interlocking panels (New Tupton S42) Expired On offer are approximately 20 coloured foam interlocking floor pieces. I was gifted these on Freecycle, but didn't have a chance to use them. Collection from New Tupton.

56d

Free: Large aloe vera plant (New Tupton S42) Expired I've just repotted this (hence why it looks a little stressed), and now I don't have room for it. Does anyone want it? Collection from New Tupton.

56d

Free: Blackberry bushes (New Tupton S42) Gifted On offer are 2 large potted blackberry bushes (plastic tubs included). Take one or both. Collection from New Tupton.

56d

Free: Head & Shoulders shampoo (New Tupton S42) Expired Part full bottle (1/3) of Head & Shoulders Anti-Dandruff, Hair Booster Men Ultra shampoo. Hubby didn't like it. Rather than throw it away, does anyone want to try it? Collection from New Tupton.

56d

Free: Wreath (New Tupton S42) Gifted No longer needed. This is a pretty spring themed door wreath. Good, used condition. Collection from New Tupton.

Request: Folding kitchen chairs (New Tupton S42) Received We're expecting overseas visitors next week and don't have enough kitchen chairs. They must fold u, as our kitchen is small. If anyone has a couple, we'd be very grateful. Thanks for reading, Patricia

95d

Free: 4 Bolts (New Tupton S42) Expired Found in a box after moving, but I have no idea what they are...stabilising bolts for a large appliance? I hope someone can use them, otherwise they'll be binned.

137d

Free: Travel stairgate (but please read) (New Tupton S42) Expired I'm not sure if anyone can use this, but I have a travel stairgate that is missing the 2 side pieces. I had intended to get some wood to replace the metal pieces, but never got around to it. Because it's a travel stairgate, it fixes to the opening by screwing rubbery disks, so that it is stretched tightly. Therefore, it may not need the side bits. It measures roughly 35" wide x 32" high. Collect from New Tupton, although I'm in Hillsborough, Sheffield on Wednesdays, so could be collected from there.

145d

Free: Whiteboard (New Tupton S42) Expired This whiteboard was damaged in our move but is still usable. It measures 23.5" x 31.5". Collect from New Tupton, although I'm in Hillsborough, Sheffield on Wednesdays, so could be collected from there.

145d

Free: 3 Drawer Office Cabinet (New Tupton S42) Gifted Now surplus to requirements, this 3 drawer office cabinet is in very good condition, but it doesn't have a key. It measures approx. 17.5" wide x 21.5" deep x 23" high. Collection only from New Tupton.

147d

Free: Striped Round Ottoman / Footstool (New Tupton S42) Gifted I bought this footstool with the intention of recovering it in a material to match our couch, but have realised that I don't have the time to do it. It's solid, yet light, measuring 23" in diameter and 9.5" high. Collection from New Tupton.

154d

Free: Cardboard Wardrobe Box (New Tupton S42) Gifted Sturdy large cardboard wardrobe box, ideal for storage or moving. This is now flattened, ready to be collected from New Tupton.

Free: Green Garden Table (Hasland S41) Gifted The hole for the umbrella is slightly broken (the wind tried to take it and the umbrella!), but this doesn't affect its use. The legs come off for transport. Size: 35" diameter, 28" high. Collection from Hasland.

Free: Carpet Offcut (New Tupton S42) Gifted Lovely brown/caramel fleck colour. Good enough in the home as a runner or in the allotment to suppress weeds. Size: 40" wide x 99" long. Collection from New Tupton.

211d

Free: Long Carpet Offcut (Hasland S41) Gifted This would make a lovely runner. Alternatively, as it's hessian backed, it could be used in the allotment to suppress weeds. It's a light terracotta colour, no stains. Size: 28" wide x 146" (12') long. Collection from Hasland.
