Free Recycling:

Free Recycling something is to give it away for free to someone who is in need. From couches, clothes, and toys to kitchen sinks (literally) many surprising things are avoiding the landfill and finding renewed use through being free recycled on FreeMesa. Thousands of people are connecting to give away something to other people with a need. Here are three steps you can take to join the free recycling movement.

  1. Create an account on FreeMesa. Enter your correct postal code. Using this, FreeMesa will connect you to other people living near you geographically so it will be more convenient to free recycle stuff and consume less energy making the exchange. Each day FreeMesa will send out an email with all of the new free stuff that is available in your local area.
  2. There are two kinds of posts:
    • Offers: When you post something you have to give away.
    • Requests: When you are looking for a particular item
  3. When looking for something new, check to see if anyone in your area is trying to give the item you need away for free before buying it. Likewise, when cleaning your house, try posting an offer for the stuff you no longer need to see if anyone could use it before throwing it out.
  4. Reciprocity One of the best ways to get more free stuff offered in your neighborhood is to give stuff away yourself. People see these posts and are more eager to support their local communities when they see their community is eager to support them. When a member gets an email with an offer in it, they are 3 times more likely to post an offer of their own vs. an email with a request.

Recycling 2.0

To give away free stuff on FreeMesa is better than recycling it. It reuses, or rather, free recycles your old stuff. The quality of the stuff produced today is so good that the useful life often far exceeds the need. To recycle a perfectly good object by melting it down and reforming it into exactly the same thing for someone else makes no sense.

So what are we to do? When you have a couch that is perfectly good but has to go, it is a shame to just throw it out. When you give this stuff away for free on FreeMesa, you several great things:

  • You help a new friend, give a great gift, save them money, and improve their quality of life.
  • You save yourself the time and cost of having it hauled away.
  • You have reduced pollution in the environment twice - no old couch rotting in a landfill and no pollution in making a new one.

Help Charities Get Free Stuff

Helping charities is a great thing to do, and most people want to help. The problem is we often don't have free cash to donate or time to volunteer. However, now there is a new way to help. Charities are often in need of the same things - an animal shelter always needs new towels, for example. FreeMesa has a charity search where you can find local charities near your home and see the list of things they currently need.

If they happen to need that thing sitting in your closet for the last 3 years, great! You get to help the local charities working to build your local community with the free stuff you no longer need and were probably going to throw out anyway. Your free stuff is recycled into a new home helping the people in need most, and all at no cost to you or the environment. This is the ultimate Win-Win.
