Daytona Beach Area Freecycle

Have something you don't need anymore? Don't just put it out at the curb and send it to a landfill, give it away! An easy way to do this is through Freecycle. Just type in your city and find a group near you. There are local groups in Daytona Beach, Port Orange, and beyond. And if you don't see one for your city, start one!

Once you sign up, watch the e-mails come in of what people are offering or in need of and send out e-mails to the group when you have something to give away. The best part about it is that it is good for the plenty, because you are re-using the items, plus you save money, because it is all free!
