Give & get free stuff locally

Features & Capabilities

Trash Nothing + Freecycle is a Chrome extension that helps you give away and find free items in local Freecycle, Freegle, and Free Circles groups. It's easy to share your unwanted but reusable items with your neighbors and discover freebies others are giving away. Everything is always free with no strings attached. Local freecycling communities are typically volunteer-driven, and the most active groups grow when members invite friends and family.

Post what you have to give away, search for items you want, and connect with others who can help. Common freebies include books, clothes, furniture, games, electronics, appliances, tools, building materials, and more. While not every city has an active group, the strongest communities thrive when participants spread the word and work together to keep items out of landfills.

User Reviews

Users praise quick posting with photos, private in-app messaging, a broad range of items, and a community-focused, landfill-friendly vibe. They also value distance-based browsing and easy layouts. Common drawbacks center on branding confusion with Freecycle, login barriers, occasional instability and photo issues, incomplete post visibility, and spammy posters, which can hinder discovery and coordination.

Pros

Easy and quick posting of items (including photos).
In-app messaging keeps personal details private until commitment.
Wide range of items and a strong, community-focused vibe that helps declutter and keeps things out of landfills.
Distance-based search and multiple layout options make browsing posts straightforward.
Consistent, easy-to-use experience that supports giving items to others rather than selling.

Cons

Branding confusion: the app is not affiliated with Freecycle, leading to expectations of Freecycle branding and features.
Login problems: Freecycle credentials often don’t work; many users must create a separate Trash Nothing account.
Stability issues: crashes when setting location and other bugs like not retaining photos.
Limited visibility of posts: not all groups or keywords are shown and searches can miss items in your area.
Inbox clutter from spammy posters or repetitive postings can make it hard to track items.

I love Trash nothing because I can post something in a couple of minutes, including photos and if nobody responds, I can just recycle it the next week. Also, I have received some things I really needed like a toaster oven and a microwave.

For many years I was a member of freecycle through yahoo groups. Yahoo ended groups then Trash Nothing took its place for me. I’ve been a member for 5 years and have gifted items I no longer needed and have been gifted really nice things I can use. It’s very easy to use the app as there are multiple layout options to see what’s being offered or requested. You can select the milage you are willing to travel. Communication is done in the app so you don’t have to give location or phone# until you’ve committed and are working out pickup. Most people set the item on their porch for quick pickup. It’s nice to give directly rather than a for profit thrift business that may throw it out. Also some items are not suitable for a store but is just what someone is looking for. This app works consistently well and is a great service to communities. Thank you to the developer.

I set my location, and if I scroll For 2 seconds it will crash out and force me back to the screen for setting my locations and what groups I want to be a part of. I can’t even browse the posts before being asked if I want to set my zip code and the surrounding areas again. It makes it frustrating to use.
