What is Freecycle?

The Freecycle Network™ is made up of 4,655 groups with 6,255,000 members across the globe. It's a grassroots and entirely nonprofit movement of people who are giving (& getting) stuff for free in their own towns. It's all about reuse and keeping good stuff out of landfills. Each local group is moderated by a local volunteer (them's good people). Membership is free. To sign up, go to www.freecycle.org.

It is a simple concept... If you've got something you no longer want, you send out an e-mail to your group notifying it is available - and if you want something you can even ask for it! Then you arrange pick-up.
