Vox Pop: Converting clutter from trash to treasure

Quick way to dispose of lots of stuff? | Ask MetaFilter Wow, talk about good timing. I've noticed in comments on this week's clutter posts that there's a lot of interest from you all in the away part of "throw away" -- people seem to have a lot of ideas on the most interesting, charitable, creative, and environmentally-responsible routes for converting your own trash into someone else's treasure. So far we (and that AskMe thread) have covered:
What's your creative solution? Let's try to avoid names of specific businesses and charities except inasmuch as they offer a truly creative and non-obvious solution to reuse or recycling. What's the most interesting way you've cleared your crap while doing some good? Have you got any suggestions that are clever and convenient? 28 Comments

 One point that FlyLady makes...Submitted by Rae (not verified) on July 7, 2007 - 6:05am.
One point that FlyLady makes is that it's important not to dither about how and where to get rid of stuff. Because that becomes another obstacle to doing it. And those of us with problems getting rid of stuff don't need one more obstacle. So it's more important to do it (getting the stuff away) than to do it in the perfect way. (Taking environmental concerns into account, of course.) » POSTED IN:
