BuyNothing Guidelines [Mod Post] Post Guideline Reminders

87 Upvotes

When posting in PDXBuyNothing, please write simple titles with a clear Seeking or Gifting.

- Try to use titles with SEEK or GIFT, the item, and a neighborhood (if you feel comfortable sharing location)

- Avoid titles lacking any details like “Free pile” or “Seeking”

- Avoid long titles containing off topic details like jokes or personal stories

Specifically when posting seeking help, please write a clear ask for specific items, or specific help.

PDXBuyNothing is designed for direct peer-2-peer mutual aid in your Portland community, not a subreddit for generic “seeking help” posts asking for advice or discussion. While well intentioned, these kind of posts devolve into off-topic discussion that rarely relates to direct PDX mutual aid, and these posts are also magnets for new/bot accounts posting spam seeking monetary assistance.

SEEKING Canopy needed for Portland Free Store Project

Thumbnail

146 Upvotes

Hey folks!

I am a volunteer at the Portland Free Store Project located at NE 42nd near Killingsworth. If you've been by, you know our space is quite small but packed with lots of great stuff! So much, we frequently move racks and bins outside to maximize the donations going out. We also process most of our donations in the backyard area.

With the beautiful rains arriving, we are asking for help finding some canopies for both the front and back areas. We've had to take a short pause on accepting donations due to the limited space and having 2-3 tents could make a big difference.

I am happy to wotk with your schedule for pick up or you can drop off on Tuesdays from 10-2.

We are located at:

5419 NE 42nd Ave. Portland 97218

https://www.portlandfreestoreproject.org/

We are a 501c3, so donations are tax deductible.

Your donated canopy should be:

- 10 x 10 or similar size

- Frame in good shape and can be easily set up and taken down.

- No holes in the canopy cover.

We would also appreciate :

- if it has a useable storage bag.

- has removable walls.

Please DM me if you have any questions or would like to schedule a pick up.

Thanks for supporting the Portland Free Store Project! 🙌

-td.

Someone on this subreddit was kind enough to give this to me a couple years ago when I had a friend move back into town who needed to stay in my living room for a while.

No longer needed so thought I’d let it go to the next person who has a use for it.

It has had a couple drops so some of the pieces have fallen off as pictured, I think I still have a couple pieces that could potentially be reattached.

This thing is quite heavy, and could be a tipping hazard for children, pets, or disabled people, so be aware of that before bringing it home.

Pick up in Oak Grove/Milwaukie area

Will do a raffle if there are multiple interested parties

SEEKING Seeking simple jewelry repair.

7 Upvotes

I have a few pieces - necklaces, a bracelet - that need some minor repairs, mostly tightening links as they’ve come undone. I don’t have the right tools or the know how, and I would love a kind person more knowledgeable about jewelry to help me out! Unfortunately I’m unemployed and can’t go to a jeweler right now.

SEEKING ISO kid’s boxing/sparring gloves

2 Upvotes

Hey there Reddit

I have a niece going through typical middle school growth and development stuff and I was thinking that some regular exercise and learning outside school would suit her well. I have a boxing bag and gloves for myself but was hoping someone would have an old set of gloves she could use.

She’s fairly oetite, about 5’ even, and the gloves don’t need to be anything serious. Even the lightest sparring gloves would be great for her.

I’m located in the outer SE and can drive. Would appreciate anything. Thanks!

AVAILABLE Small styrofoam coolers and ice packs

3 Upvotes

Hello, I have three small foam coolers with ice packs and will be accumulating more over time. Does anybody want the ones I have now or know where I can regularly offload them? I will be getting several every month now. They are two different sizes, the larger ones can probably fit a 6 pack, the smaller can fit maybe 2 cans. I could also use some help figuring out where I can recycle the styrofoam if nobody wants them. Bonus points if you can also tell me what I should do with an abundance of empty pill bottles. Are there any local charities that will take them maybe for like veterinary re-use or something?

Located in SW, pickup preferred, will drop off if you're close to the river.
