Request: Garden bin lids (Seaford BN25) On the off chance anyone has a couple of garden bin lids, perhaps the lid from a broken waterbutt.. I would be really grateful to collect, I have two bins pictured, but without a lid compost & horsemanure for my roses turns into a smelly septic mudbath from the rain & the other id really like to empty my rubble bags full of builders sand into. Im in seaford but happy to drive to Hove, Eastbourne,Uckfield & anywhere in between

Free: Fresh rose petals (Seaford BN25) Expired Ive had to cut all the flowering rose heads off my massive oversized rose ( almost 3 m tall) before the petals fall in this wind & make a mess of the motar of the brick pillared wall im building to support it. Would anyone want them? May be good for confetti for tomorrow if picked up this evening. They have a lovely fragent scent. Second photo is with them mostly off, the photo of the container is one of those lidl garden waste bins, which i need. If no interest/collection by this evening they will go into composting

Request: Plastic carrier bags (Rottingdean BN2) Expired Used, unwanted crumpled plastic supermarket carrier bags.. Before supermarkets installed charges for carrier bags I & I'm sure many others had a stash of bags within bags of plastic bags..I have used up my stash transporting rotted manure & woodchip, they lasted about 3/4 rounds, before small bits of sticks/stones tore them or the handles gave way.. bin liners tear too easily & rubble bags don't tend to have handles...supermaket carrier bags are so perfect as the load is manageable.. bags for life would topple over & spill the manure in my car when I would take a sharp turn..supermarket carrier bags I can do a loose knot with the handles & contents stay put, I can also stack them ontop of each other like temporary bricks in the boot. My roses are greedy & the clay/chalky/filled with builders rubble soil in my garden really benefits too. I can collect easily & gratefully
