365 Days, 365 Ways...To Go Green

Greenhabbers is busy remodeling a house and part of green remodeling is to recycle and reuse as much as possible. Normally we would use Stardust Builders to recycle the carpeting, cabinets, mirrors etc. that are the result of demolition but Stardust was not taking some of the items we had. Time for Plan B. We decided to try Freecycle and love it! We were able to help 3 families who were down on their luck with 'almost new' carpeting, a kitchen sink and countertops, paint, tile, bathroom mirrors and appliances. Two of the families mentioned that they went to Startdust but couldn't afford the prices. Freecycle is the best way to give we have found to date - check it out the Freecycle website and give the landfill a break!
