Giving furniture away is often faster than storing it or sending it to waste. A clear listing helps the right collector understand the size, condition and collection requirements before they message you.
Describe the item honestly
Include the item type, condition, measurements, location area and any faults. Mention stains, missing screws, pet homes or smoke exposure where relevant.
Use photos that help collectors decide
Take clear photos from the front and side, plus close-ups of marks or wear. Good photos reduce wasted messages and missed collections.
Protect your exact address
Use town-only or approximate location until you have agreed collection details. Share exact pickup information only when you are comfortable.
Questions people ask
Can I ask for a small payment?
No. MyFreebies is for genuinely free items only. If you want payment, use a selling platform instead.
What furniture details should I include?
Add measurements, condition, collection access, whether it dismantles and whether the collector needs a van or help lifting.
What if someone does not collect?
Keep messages polite, offer the item to another person, and avoid sharing private details too early.
