I have posted the link to the 'International Section' and you will see there are names of Freecycle groups all over the world even one in Istanbul.

If you click on the HOME link at the top of the page, you will get the full gist of it, but here is a quote from their site to explain what it's all about.

QUOTE

The Freecycle Network was started in May 2003 to promote waste reduction in Tucson's downtown and help save desert landscape from being taken over by landfills. The Network provides individuals and non-profits an electronic forum to "recycle" unwanted items. One person's trash can truly be another's treasure!

When you want to find a new home for something -- whether it's a chair, a fax machine, piano, or an old door -- you simply send an e-mail offering it to members of your Freecycle group.

Or, maybe you're looking to acquire something yourself. Simply respond to a member's offer, and you just might get it. After that, it's up to the giver to decide who receives the gift and to set up a pickup time for passing on the treasure.

One main rule: Everything posted must be free, legal, and appropriate for all ages.


This is a superb idea and maybe setting up a new fringe group for Kusadasi Fethiye Altinkum etc could be very useful for all homeowners here?

Merv!
