dismantling greenhouse what to do with it?
Freecycle is a bit of a pain to join! I just want to advertise the glass etc but first I have had to join yahoogroups, (good grief there's some right twerps on some of those!) and then I have had to APPLY with information about myself AND to justify why I wish to join! I joined Freecyclence, without too much bother. Of a dozen or so items I advertised, only about two were actually taken, but I did get a couple of very useful things from it. However I came out of it because I was sickened by the fact that there were 50% more people posting 'WANTED' than posting 'OFFER', and some of the wants were just sheer greed - people asking for specific models of cars with current MOTs, three-piece suites which must be black leather in good condition, washer-driers, fridge-freezers, HD TVs, DVD players and all sorts of expensive items in spite of the ground rules saying that expensive items should not be asked for. A friend has just been trying to give away an old aluminium-framed greenhouse. Apparently the type of glass used in old greenhouses is no longer legal. He had someone interested, but this chap changed his mind, and eventually the greenhouse went to the tip. The glass can't even be put in among the bottles for recycling, it has to go to landfill. Not a happy story. |
