A completely Free and Contact Free way of Donating unwanted Household Items, from Donation to Collection. A simple way collectors can view location and item details of these goods. Every year thousands of good reusable items are put out in hard waste collections. Many people try to sell these items or even give them away for free but the whole process can be difficult and time consuming. You have to organise a suitable day and time for a collection that also suits the recipient of the goods. Then often people reschedule or donβt turn up to collect as promised, or simply stop responding. As a recipient of these items you are also faced with often strict pick up times or even told to pick up immediately or they will give the items to someone else. This puts a lot of pressure on the part of the recipient. Ideally, people donβt want these items to end up in landfill but when time is precious itβs often a choice people feel that they are forced to make but now there is a way to make the process easy. Simply post your items via the Waste Not! App. The collector will view your post then will collect some or all of your items. Yours and the recipients actions have made a positive step for the future good of the planet. Waste Not! Bringing people together in a common cause Reusing, Recycling, Reinventing, bringing back to life items that would have been destined for landfill. So if you think it a waste to go into landfill then list it first on WASTE NOT!
