When we bought new kitchen cabinets a few years ago, we gave our old ones to the neighbors across the street for use in their garage. They were delighted, the guy doing our remodeling was delighted he didn't have to figure out a way to dispose of them. We already had shelves and things in our garage so we couldn't use them.

Last summer we had a new kitchen floor put in and we had this huge piece of oak that had been used to cover where a wall had been between the carpet and the kitchen floor. I kept it and almost a year later, one of the neighbors said he could use it. I was glad someone could...saved him some money and one less thing in the landfill.
