ORIGINAL: Toppingfrmbottom I admit, I wonder if you have ever heard of freecycle.org? If there is one in your area try it out. You post offered, your zip code, then what is being offered, and then if any one is interested they contact you and then come get it. If you do not want them coming to your house, you can arrange another point of pick up, but coming to your neighbor hood is quicker and I like it better, since my day can go about as fully normal and I do not have to stop and take the stuff somewhere. quote:
ORIGINAL: sophiesback admit the monster quickly retracted his "get rid of it all" so we went through and got rid of about half...and now I've sent out a dozen texts asking for a home for these toys. I admit I haven't that much patience. I wanted them gone within a few hours. I'm on a time crunch here. I admit I would prefer helping someone I know first, kinda the "taking care of our own" thinker. I admit the stoooooooopid Uhaul place posted that they were open today, but weren't. I admit I had to call them, get redirected 94375934759437 times, and eventually was given another number to call. I admit at first the little boy on the other end of the line tried to tell me that I could not possibly have made a reservation online. I admit I was a wee little bit snarky when he exclaimed "Oh! You DO have a reservation for 4pm today at xxx address!" I admit I finally got a nice lady that was frantically trying to find me a truck today, but in the end we rescheduled for tomorrow.
