A random Malibu kids' bike. Shiny, silly, but will function for that critcial phase of a kids' life when they need this size bike. Note, any kid that fits this bike should not need those idiot wheels.
Yet another BBQ starter chimney, all very handy if you happen to need one. This one available to anybody who happens to need one.
A couple of random strollers, first up a Maclaren Volo in OK shape. Nothing special.
Also some kind of Graco thingy, seems all present and correct but awaits a full checkout.
Bonus, the Graco came with a printout of a wedding gift registry. Just what we needed.
This Lodge ridged cast ironj skillet is in OK shape but we do not really have a use for it. It will clean up OK, available to any happy reader of this.
This Dell 24 inch display does not really have a obvious model number on it or whatever, but it works fine, as you can see in the picture. No apparent reason for discard, it is even pretty bright compared to some displays we have.
This random Snapper petrol lawn mower was discarded with a repair tag saying it did not start. Needless to say, we put fuel in it and it started first pull.
Yes, really, first pull. Not after a pull to compression, not after choke fiddling, literally and absolutely the real first pull.
Yet another Maclaren Volo pushchair, this one a weird lemony shade. Nothing in particular wrong with it, needs a clean, will find a new home once all that is done.
This is a Next PowerClimber. It is brand new and is indeed bike shaped object, and not a bike. Somebody out there may want it, so we will give them the chance for some token amount on money. Token money for token bike.
A fine selection of offspring transportation devices gathered up in a short drive around a curbside pickup. First up a Phil and Ted Dash, needs a clean but otherwise a pretty nice item:
Yet another Maclaren Quest pushchair, OK shape except some chipped foam on the handles. The cover is missing in the pic as that pulls off and washes up nicely (it washed up nicely).
We had another of these Inglesina Zippy pushchair things a while ago, pretty handy. They are clearly a Peg Perego Pliko type thing with some Inglesina branding and such, This one is very nice, probably destined for an overseas deployment with a family member. A quick clean will make it super spiffy.
A random lightweight Chicco umbrella fold pushchair, handy dandy. Somebody will want it. Came with a cruise ship luggage tag on it, that was probably the only real deployment of this pristine device.
A random little Ryobi table saw on a set of legs (not shown). Works fine, cuts wood, very portable. Not sure if we want it (we have a Unisaw).
A random Recaro booster seat in good condition. Useful as we know lots of people with offspring in the booster seat age range.
A random Panasonic MC 4500 mountain bike. Nothing special on the face of it but a pretty serviceable machine for running around town. Reason for discard possibly broken freewheel. New one installed, ready to ride and already given a neighbour. That is some fine and prompt waste stream minimization.
This random halogen worklight seems fine, lights up and could be useful. Grabbed with/for a friend.
A random sun lounger. Seems functional, nothing special. Lounge on it, maybe in the sun.
A selection of devices for sucking up dirt. First a grungy Craftsman shopvac seemingly with all attachments included. Found with/for a friend, will sit in the garage workship and suck up wood shavings or whatever.
Also a random Kenmore vacuum cleaner. This is for the upstairs so they do not have to drag their existing one up and down stairs to keep the house clean.
This nice Specialized mountain bike was presumably discarded due to two broken nipples on the rear wheel. The wheel was slightly out of true as a result. This, we presume led to it's being neglected, which led to the chain rusting and hence ultimate discard.
New nipples installed, new chain already on, just finishing it off with new grips and rear brake cable.
A big fat plastic box with a couple of handy battery powered Ryobi tools, minus the battery. This is a little tricky to do testing and such but might be fruitful at some point.
An LG dehumidifier, condition unknown. We shall soon see I guess. Though maybe somebody or something somewhere soon will be slightly less humid.
Update: Works fine, pressed into service.
