In January we posted in Instagram about using Gumtree UK app to donate things we didnt find useful. I have always used Freecycle, Freegle, Ebay and Gumtree to sale and to donate. I decided to post about it to make 'reuse' visible. Recycling is a social norm habit, eg you see your neighbours doing it and you are more likely to do it. Waste reduction or zero waste habits tend to be done indoors, so these are not as visible. I listed the items we have given away to neighbours in Instagram, and Gumtree wanted to document the story. Watch it above. Below some of the bulky waste items that were re-used by others, avoided going to landfill.
