Was always a fan of Freecycle when I… Was always a fan of Freecycle when I first started using it but it quickly became apparent that it was not being used in the true spirit it was designed for. In the wanted section same old names looking for high value items. I put three top of the range bathroom cabinets of identical design in the offers section a few months apart and the same person came forward each time. Also the number of time wasters is beyond a joke. For these reasons I have stopped using.

Absolutely perplexed by so many… Absolutely perplexed by so many "timewasting" reviews on here. Only because I've tried several times to get Offers from freecyclers - I've sent messages online as well as email - but I never seem to be successful! Never seem to get any responses. Would love to know where I'm going wrong here. Can't help for want of trying to take people's stuff off their hands!

I absolutely LOVE Freecycle I absolutely LOVE Freecycle - I have picked up loads of excellent quality items (wardrobes, glass coffee table, lampshade, desk, bed, mirror, drawers, bedside table to mention just a few). I have also passed on many unwanted items including a bike, old desk, coffee table, towel rail, bedding, clothes. I guess it depends where you live

Throw stuff out. Don't waste your time here. Full of people that engage you in endless chat and then disappear. I haven't cleared anything on this site for over a year despite offering good quality items for recycling. I would have been messed around by at least 10 people in that time saying they will turn up and never do. Came home early for someone to collect an armchair. Never turned up. Never responded. Absolute total waste of time. Just throw stuff out. Far easier.

Pretty good overall Only had one experience, but overall was pretty good. I guess because the other end was interested in the product I was advertising, so the whole process was pretty smooth, even though I had to rush because of the short time frame I had. My only complain would be the platform's ux design, but since I only needed to use the site once, I wouldn't say it was a major problem.
