Free: Moving? 20-25 bankers boxes (Fruitvale and 580) Gifted Only used once. However, lids were taped down, so the removed tape as well as the sharpie labeling on one side, make them not pristine for office files. They are still perfectly sturdy, though, and ready for more moves, or storing lots of stuff in the garage, etc. all bundled up tightly with tape in two groups, for easy car transport. Let me know when you can pick up if interested.

Request: Extra hose (Fruitvale between 580/Foothill) Expired I gave away two hoses last summer, but now I have a need for an extra! 🤣 Doesn't have to be in perfect condition – just something to hook up at another location to water some plants. Thanks for considering!

Request: microwave for a good cause (Fruitvale between 580/Foothill) Expired Hi – we have an elderly neighbor in the final stage of life (she has stage 4 cancer and is in at-home hospice), who worked her whole career as an ESL teacher. We've been helping her out as much as we can. This morning she called and let us know her microwave had stopped working. This is especially unfortunate because she uses it to heat up her Meals on Wheels dishes that are delivered every week. Is there a chance that somebody has a microwave they're not using that they'd be able to donate to her, so that we don't have to go out and buy a new one for what is unfortunately such a short time? Thanks in advance, if anybody can help!

Free: Decorative 8 ball (Fruitvale between 580/Foothill) Expired This was a mouse ball for a Kensington mouse. I don't know if it's exactly the same size as an actual pool ball, but it's visually close to me. I don't think this should really be used as an 8 ball – more as a fun thematic gift, or art object.
