I just wanted to make everyone aware of a service called Freecycle, that allows people give things away to others that they would typically throw away.
People post for things they want to get rid of, others respond and come take it away. You can also post for things you're looking for. There are local FreeCycle chapters all over the country, and the closest one to us would be Shamong or Camden. It's also possible to start a Medford chapter, if someone were interested.
Here is the link to main website
