Packing material with holes (Cambridge, The Port)
Expired
Several pieces of spongy packing material with holes in them. Originally used to pack oranges for shipping.

I'd prefer to pass along all of them, but if you only need one or two, at least they won't end up in a landfill. Easy outside pick-up between Central and Kendall Squares.

Three silk dresses, w. some damage (Cambridge, The Port)
Gifted
I had these three dresses dry cleaned, because I was going to donate them to Boomerangs. But the dry cleaning showed up some unknown damage, and there are some sections of the fabric that are deteriorated. But there's still plenty of good, undamaged silk fabric that might be usable for other projects. Easy outside pickup between Central and Kendall Squares; I can put them in a plastic bag if it's a rainy day.
