Free: Dumped Bar Stools: yellow fabric (Edgewater) Really cool barstools dumped in my alley – a little dusty but look like good shape. Mustard yellow fabric with mid height backs, decently cushioned, on black stands with footrests. I didn’t have my phone on me to take a picture, they weren’t mine, and I can’t go back out there to check if they’re still there for you – it just hurt me to see them in the alley with no one to claim them before the rain. I moved them from next to the dumpster to a spot along a construction fence underneath the L track, so hopefully they’ll stay dry. They should be easy to spot if you drive through the alley between Balmoral and Berwyn, east of Broadway and west of Winthrop just north of the new Berwyn red line stop. If you happen to actually pick them up, let me know so I can remove the post. Thank you. Good luck out there everybody.
Request: Large mat (Edgewater) Withdrawn Hello, Somebody posted some mat tiles on here a few weeks ago— I was intrigued but only realized this week: It’s exactly what I need😹 I have a 6 x 8‘ area I’m trying to cover with a mat maybe about a half an inch thick. I know I think I probably missed the boat on this, but if anybody’s out there with something similar, please reach out. My thanks!

Request: Rails for Filing Cabinet (3 x 42”) (Edgewater) Expired Looking for rails that fit a lateral filing cabinet: I need 3 of them, at 42”. I would take any. They’re not cheap and come in two packs (sigh). But they’re my last step away from the home archive of my dreams! My thanks for any help.
Free: Loveseat couch (Edgewater) Expired I got this loveseat sofa from somebody on this site only last year, but it turns out not to be the right thing for my space. I really like the color and how deep the seats are. It remains cozy even though it's a bit worn. Second floor alleyway pickup

Free: Glass bubbler pipe (Edgewater) Gifted It clogs easily. I needed something easier to clean, but if you want to give it a try, let me know when you can pick up
Free: Roku device (Edgewater) Expired Several years old but works fine. I was having trouble with the captions on the Disney app, so I updated. Not sure it was a hardware problem tho. I will only respond to messages if you suggest a time and day to pick it up. I’m pretty flexible this week.
Free: Brother HL-5470DW (paper jam) (Edgewater) Gifted This duplex b/w printer has been trusty for years. Has had a phantom paper jam I can’t solve. If you want to try, it’s yours. There is a toner refill as well. I’ll only respond to messages that propose time/day you can come pick it up.

Free: Storm Glass & Thermometer (Edgewater) Gifted The storm glass needs to be “reset” — gentle heating with a hairdryer. I can provide instructions and the box it came in.

Free: Stationary Bike (Pooboo) (Edgewater) Gifted (I will only respond to messages that let me know when you might be able to pick it up and confirm you’ll have help to move it. Once I receive such a message, I will mark it as promised.) It works by an adjustable tension band. I took off most of the stickers. Also has an attachable magazine rack/cupholder, as well as a small screen. Keep track of distance, time, heartbeat. Must be able to pick up and transport – I’m on the second floor. The handlebars and seat can easily be disassembled. if you want to disassemble the legs, I will leave that up to you.

Free: Standing lamp (Edgewater) Gifted It is made to adjust at the hinge, which is a little unstable—works well just standing up tho and the hinge could probably be fixed. Don’t have space for it anymore.
