Freecycle still working in Southwark despite current crisis


Recommended Posts

Hmm not sure I agree. For instance I'm desperate to get rid of an office desk chair, which someone else (eg who has been forced to work from home) might be equally desperate for. A no contact collection should easily be possible, which combined with a sufficient clean of the item afterwards would make this very low risk and in keeping with the spirit of the current guidelines.

Just received from Southwark Mod Team - Freecycle Southwark suspended



'To all members,


During this difficult time and following on from the government's advice The Southwark freecycle will temporarily stop posting any new offers/wanted ads. All live posts will be removed.


We thank you for your continued support and hope this will continue when things return to normal.


Please stay safe.


Kind regards

Update from Southwark Freecycle this morning:


'We would like to thank you for your understanding and being such caring members of Southwark freecycle. In line with some of the other freecycle/recycle groups we have decided to reopen our group but for now we will only allow posts where social distancing can be observed. We are saddened by the amount of items going to landfill but more so by the huge number losing their lives to this awful virus. To you all we say be careful and observe SOCIAL DISTANCING at all times.


Thank you


Your Moderating Team.'

I've noticed a lot of people are just leaving things outside their house for people to take during this pandemic. Fair enough, if people want it enough, theyll take it. If not, leave it where it is.

    • It doesn't work as a commercial venture.  Bit churlish to say I told you so.  I told you so.  I'll send less greetings cards.  What pees me off is international postage where you can no longer send light letters at 10 grammes, normal ones up to 20g, now all at the much more expensive 100 g  Didn't we vote to take back control and price everything according to irrational units like ounces? That's some obscure humour btw   
    • Available from Monday April 8th 2024, 2on2Walkies take pride in doggie care and only walk 2 furry friends at a time. I make sure that they get plenty of doggie interaction and socialisation in the park as well as making friends. Back home happy and tired I always check that the water bowl has fresh water and always make sure the doggie is left comfortable before I leave. I'm fully insured and have a couple of slots available for local walks to either Peckham Rye Park or Dulwich Park.  Thank you!  
    • Why would they only send them recorded delivery? I used the signed for option yesterday.
    • > however I know I will have to prove it and provide a receipt,  both I can't provide. So what leads you to say that the dustmen have done damage to it?
