Happy that I got what I was looking for

You’ll definitely get what you are looking for, it’s just a matter of time. Thank you to Freegle for this great platform .

Outstanding

Great too deal with

Useful app, but very bad management, the keep sending scam emails every single day, and you can’t stop that! Deleted, rest assured

Flaky and difficult

The way this app works is flaky and consistently difficult to navigate.
It’s a laudable objective to recycle but the app implementation is shockingly bad.
It needs a through overhaul with a mobile phone friendly interface.

Negative changes

In the last week the ability to see items available in specific groups has gone and we could only see items “nearby” without being able to set a distance radius. Earlier this week it became impossible to send messages without the app crashing. Today it’s impossible to log in either via the app or the website

Can’t log back in

Must have been logged out and now I can’t get back in. Tried changing password etc but it just fails every time.

Change for change sake

The previous version worked well, the new version/layout is just annoying. Have now uninstalled it and sticking with free cycle instead

It’s not a very good website, but it’s a worse app

The app is essentially a less reliable version of the website. I’ve been using it for over a week and have had multiple red boxes pop up with errors that mean nothing to me.

I’ve also had several times when I’ve opened the app and I’ve just been presented with a blank white screen.

I love the ethos of Freegle and have given many things away over the years, but it’s back to the website for me.

Excellent app and website

Freegle has enabled me to donate many quality items to grateful recipients.
Freegle has helped the planet as some of those items would have ended up in landfill.
The app is easy to use.

Perfect handover

Dealt with gentleman several times, always on time.

Happy!

Excellent site for free stuff

Good app for clearing unwanted stuff

I have this app for a few years now and I never had problem with people picking up unwanted stuff.

Useful app

So satisfying giving stuff a new home. Amazing what other people want. The ‘send address’ feature is nice when arranging collection so you don’t have to type it out each time.

Brilliant Site!

Amazing results in giving away things not suitable for charity shops.

Freegle - A great recycling website!

The App makes this website easy to use - have it on my iPad and phone. Developers are improving it regularly. Certainly a better site to navigate than Freecyle.

Great app for recycling

Freegle is super easy to use and the people who use it seem to be friendlier than on other similar sites. Love the way you can mark an item as ‘promised’ and note the day and time of handover so that the system can prompt you both. Highly recommend this app for sharing your unwanted ‘stuff’ with others who have a use for it.

Brilliant

Excellent app that saves many items from going to landfill

Great option for our community

I love Freegle as it helps me to declutter and helps the person who takes the item Definitely a win win that stops stuff that still has useful life going to landfill

Local

Good reactivity

Great way to recycle

Don’t assume that old stuff in your loft is rubbish, someone else might have a use for it.
Great app with mostly reliable people using it.
