Freecycle combines free with Recycling. It works on the principle that one person's trash is another person's treasure. By becoming part of your local freecycle group you can either post things you'd like to get rid of or send messages looking for stuff. The only caveat is it has to be entirely free - no bartering, trading or other compensation can be given. You only get good karma and the knowledge that you've kept things out of the landfill that someone else can still use.
