Nice to see someone organizing the re-purposing of perfectly re-usable items... Not sure what's in play in Australia, but in the U.S. there are more than a few individuals (entrepreneurs) who drive around looking for "curbed" articles... These are gathered and added to second-hand shop inventories, for resale... If that's true in Australia it's something you might want to be aware of...you might consider a way of ensuring that those interested in an article get a fair shot at it...just a customer satisfaction thing... Good luck! |

I'm in South Australia. In my home area, I can call for one pick-up per financial year, totalling 2 cubic metres. In my office area, there's a period once per quarter where you can put items out for collection.
There are people who drive around with a cage trailer grabbing recyclable items, some for personal use, some for resale.
Besides these "official" options, a few people use Freecycle (mailing list, bit annoying) and others use Gumtree (like Craigslist).
