I read an article by Peter May yesterday and was interested to note a few of the many recycling venues available to assist us with de cluttering our homes, sheds and gardens, as well as limiting our addition to the ever growing waste mountain of reusable goods.
I also read a while ago that the first and last thing that can be seen at land near some airports, as you either become airborne or approach touchdown, is the mountains of white goods which require a specific recycling programme.
I thought that I could help by listing just a few more recycling sites, which you may find of use.
gumtree.com which is a free to use service owned by Ebay. You can either sell, swap or give away items on this site which has many sites in the UK, Ireland, South Africa, Austrailia, New Zealand and Poland.
computeraid.org Computer Aid International, self explanatory.
crn.org.uk Community recycling network.
swapxchange.org Which went national in 2004, all aspects of exchange and good for house clearance it also boasts of house swapping.
wastewatch.org.uk Which provide details of organisations that can recycle both home and workspace waste.

Great list - thankyou. We are also going to try the Bokashi system which enables all kitchen waste to be composted at home including dairy, meat and fish. You just add some special bran to the mix. I'll let you know how we get on.
Thank you mac's neice I would welcome news regarding that recycle system.
I also read an article which recommends leaving compost as a mulch on the soil and not disturbing the soil structure by digging unless necessary.
