Binghamton Freecycle.org This is the official page for the Binghamton Freecycle Network™. Learn how to get & receive free stuff! WHAT IS MY FREECYLE? WHO RUNS THE GROUP?

Freecycle (officially known as The Freecycle Network™) is made up of thousands of groups with millions of members across the globe. It's a grassroots and entirely nonprofit movement of people who are giving and getting stuff for free. Freecycle groups operate in specific towns or areas - so it's local as well as global.

The Freecycle Network™ aims to keep items out of landfills by providing an internet listings service to help people give unwanted items to someone else for free. Keeping stuff out of landfills helps build a sustainable future, is good for the environment and builds local and world communities. Sign up at http://my.freecycle.org

My FreeCycle was started as a way of providing an internet listings service to help people give unwanted items to someone else for free, specifically run by Freecycle. It also enables you to track your open posts and to automatically generate a corresponding "TAKEN" or "RECEIVED" post to the local Yahoo Group as well. It doesn't replace the local Yahoo Group but merely makes it easier for members to make and track their posts. Members don't have to use the My Freecycle tools, they may post directly to the local Yahoo Group. WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF THE GROUP? It's simple: Freecycle keeps physical items out of landfills via no-strings-attached gifts. Freecycle is run by volunteers and day-to-day decision making is made by grassroots local groups, encouraging local members to use their group sensibly and safely. Each group is run by a team of Moderators who check messages and help members. These are volunteers who give up time to help run groups - they're not paid. Group moderators consult with other groups at a regional and national level with other support structures available nationally and internationally. Freecycle rules and guidelines are agreed to globally via national moderator groups. WHERE ARE THE GROUPS ON THE INTERNET? Some Freecycle groups use Yahoo! Groups whilst others utilize the My.Freecycle site which was opened in January 2009. WHAT KIND OF THINGS ARE ON THE GROUP

Anything that is free, legal and appropriate for all ages. Examples include: washing machines, computers, baby clothes, jam-jars, carpet, plants, building supplies, etc…

IS IT JUST ABOUT GIVING THINGS AWAY? No, you can ask for things too. To work, Freecycle needs both OFFERs and WANTEDs.
