Large cardboard box 30"x18"x18" (Five Ashes, TN20)
Arrived today with vehicle parts in it. Good condition (thanks, DPD) so ready for reuse for storage, moving, whatever. Carefully opened at top only, strapped with good quality reinforced packing tape. Quite a lot of brown paper (padding when crumpled) flattened out and also included. Size in mm is 762x457x457. Not useful to us, taking up a lot of space but imagine should be useful to someone else who needs one! Will recycle if no takers. Could leave under front porch if dry.

Small reel of barbed wire (Five Ashes, TN20)
Gifted
Been tucked in the corner of a shed for many years but still in perfectly usable condition. Full of dust and spiders webs but not rusty at all.

Pair of sun loungers (Five Ashes, TN20)
Gifted
These have spent quite a number of years tucked away in a shed unused and are undeniably grubby and disreputable in appearance. They definitely need a thoroughly good cleanup but are still fully working, canvas not rotted or torn. As they do fold down very tidily they could even serve as emergency put-you-up camp beds. They will go down fully flat if required. If no responses they will sadly have to go to the local dump but I thought I'd give them one last chance here.

Chimney brushes and rods (Five Ashes, TN20)
Gifted
Set of old chimney brushes and rods, have been stored in old damp shed for many years. Do still screw together but we are never going to use them so would be happy to pass on to someone else who might.

Lakeland Dehydrator (Five Ashes, TN20)
Gifted
Lakeland dehydrator, REQUIRES REPAIR. Complete with five trays and original manual. Stopped working recently and having undone all the easy bits, I established that the element is still heating, the fan motor is still running but the fan itself is not turning to distribute the warm air. Might be easy to fix for someone capable but beyond my limited electrical skills. It has served me well for 6 or 7 years and I'd be delighted if someone else can get some more use out of it.

Vintage ceramic biscuit barrel (Five Ashes, TN20)
Gifted
No longer being used for it's primary purpose as the seal around the wooden top no longer holds tight and the biscuits go soft! Otherwise perfectly fine, no chips or cracks. Stands just over 15cm tall, approx 12cm diameter across the base. According to inscription on the base, it is now 50 years old! Currently taking up cupboard space it doesn't really merit, so time for a new home.

Large black compost bin (Five Ashes, TN20)
Gifted
Unused for some years now, this has been living behind a shed and I really doubt we will ever use it again. It is intact and complete, no cracks and hopefully useful to someone! Can be left outside for collection anytime.
