[quote=Anonymous]I'm active in both. In my area both are on facebook and the main difference is that Freecycle takes several days to approve my post, while Buy Nothing lets me just post. As a result I use Buy Nothing more, even though I don't love the culture of "letting it simmer." I'd welcome a non-facebook option. I mostly use these groups to get rid of things that can't be donated to organizations like Goodwill -- glass breakables; food; baby or pet things whose use is not obvious without context. Clothes and furniture I just donate to a regular charity and take the tax deduction. I never pick things up, only post/give. I do not care about hoarders: we're all adults and I'm not going to tell them what to do with my (their) stuff. [/quote]
