You know about Recycling. Take your cans and put them in the blue box. Call 604-RECYCLE to get some tips and find a place near you that will chip your Christmas Tree.

You know about eCycling. Take your computers and electronics to places that can responsibly dispose of them, or turn them into useful things for other people.

But what about Freecycling? Have you heard of that one?

Imagine if everything on Craigslist was free - that’s freecycling.

Basically if you’ve got something you don’t want, you offer it up and see if someone else needs it. If they do, they come and pick it up, no money changes hands and all is happy in the world.

I mean, be honest, most of the stuff we try to dump on eBay or Craigslist is just taking up space in our place. The benefit to us is being rid of the item, it’s almost a greater value than getting $10 or $20 or $50 for a nasty old couch or bookcase.

There are thousands of people already Freecycling in BC and there’s probably a group near you.
