One man’s trash….

Our newly furbished green trailer was laden up with a whole lot of junk, as was the back of the 4WD.   Out went the old filing cabinet, a rather sad looking trolley, my old iron and ironing board and all sorts of other metal items no longer required -  all going down to Earth Link.  They will send the metal items to the metal recyclers.  Added to the load were some things for them to sell in their shop, a couple of small glass tables, a heated towel rail and gas heater.  These will bring in some much needed funds for the charity to continue with it’s good works.    Earth Link was happy to accept these items to recycle or for resale,  and we are happy to clear out some more “stuff”.

The empty trailer was soon loaded up again.  This time with a couple of old window frames, left over when we replaced windows in the house.  These were gratefully accepted by the local building recyclers.   One man’s trash is certainly another man’s treasure.

We’ve got a big day tomorrow.  We are off to deliver another lot of crates and boxes to our lock-up unit in Levin.  And we can see if any work has been started on our new house.
