I used to be a member of freecycle in Canada. Thre is one in Dubai, and I just wanted to share it with you...
The Dubai Freecycle™ group is open to all who want to "recycle" that special something rather than throw it away. Whether it's a chair, a fax machine, piano or an old door, feel free to post it. Or maybe you're looking to acquire something yourself! Nonprofit groups are also welcome to participate!
One main rule: everything posted must be free. This group is part of The Freecycle Network, a nonprofit organization and a movement of people interested in keeping good stuff out of landfills. Check out freecycle.org for other cities and info on the movement! E-mail dubaifreecycle-owner@yahoogroups.com for questions or improvement ideas!
