What
is FreeCycling? Freecycling
is posting the items that you no longer need or want instead of sending it
off to the landfill. If it is something that is still usuable, chances are
that someone else might be needing it! Freecycling is a win win thing
for both the giver and the and the receiver and an added bonus is that it won't
fill up our landfills! How do you get started Freecycling? Send an email
to: TX_Hill_Country_Freecycling-subscribe@yahoogroups.com
You
will receive an email that will let you know how to proceed.
After you
have joined the group and are ready in ask for something that you need or have
to give away- Remember to: Be specific in your email about what it
is you have to give away or what it is you are wanting and be sure and include
where or how you want people to contact you.
Your very first post should
be something that you have to give away, OR, your first post could be a combined
Wanted/Offer message also.
Please do not join this list to acquire free
items to sell. Freecycling is about people giving things away to people who
could use them or people asking for things that they honestly need.

you're not ready to join the list but would like to check it out, click on this

Freecycling in the Texas Hill Country is not affiliated with Freecycle
® 'www.freecycle.org' .
Many of us were among the original
members of the Austin Freecycle network which has become exclusive to members
of that specific area over the years. After being removed from that list,
many of us gave the 'Hill Country Freecycle' list a try but most of it's membership
is a good two hours away from our area (Dripping Springs/Wimberley) and it
can take up to three days (or never) for a post to be approved which for those
of us who have garbage pickup on Monday and list our garage sales leftovers
on Saturday evening or Sunday, by the time the message has been approved,
the leftovers have been bagged up and hauled off- SO, we decided to do our
own thing because we feel it is essential to the ideal that Freecycling be
a positive thing to do and to keep it a positive thing, it must work flawlessly
for participants. It is the same idea as Freecycle ®
but hopefully we can keep Freecycling working more effectively for folks in
our area of the Texas Hill Country. |
