Thanks
I have a sofa bed in my old apartment and can not seem to give it away at such short notice. It looks like I will have to throw it away but how? Do I just leave it out on the usual rubbish collection day?
Good morning,
Try posting here under free stuff if that doesn't work try calling the Brockenhaus.

Have a nice day
Not in Zurich you don't. You have to call them in advance and they'll charge you.

Try the Heilsarmee (Salvation Army).
Are you suggesting he cut up his sofa bed into a bunch of midget sized sofa beds..? Well at least he'd have something to talk about on the Midget News thread..
It depends on where you live, the salvation army or "Emmaus" have trucks that will pick up thing for free to sell in their shops http://www.emmaus-ge.ch/html/suisse.html . Its worth a try as they sell the things for very reasonable prices. In the Lausanne region they have a day in the month that you can put unwanted furniture and crap out on the street and rubbish collectors will pick it up. Call your commune for the details of the days.
Hi, Is it true that there is a place in the outskirts of Basel, where one can dispose their furniture, free of cost? Any information in this regard would be much appreciated.
I have 2 wardrobes, one dinning table with 4 chairs and a couch to give away for free, if anyone is interested
Now I am sure there is a PROPER way to dispose of it. But often I just see people leave it by the curb on a nice day. Give it 2 hours and it has found a new home.
I did this with a futon on a rainy day in Geneva and it only took 10 minutes til it was adopted.
This Thread has addresses of rubbish disposal in Basel. If the stuff is in good condition, try a Brockenhaus or post under Market Place > Goods for Sale/Free in this Forum.
This is another Thread on a similar subject
HI,
Me and my girlfriend have just moved over to Basel and only have a bed and a few things for the kitchen so can we take you up on that offer please?
Hi Anton,
Sure thing. Why dont you guys send me a private message. I can then give you my contact details and then you guys can come and have a look at things that are avaliable.

Anyone know a place near Morges to get rid of some old wardrobes?
I've heard of a place in Tolechenaz but can't find any details. Thanks
In my neighbourhood old worn out sofas and televisions appear in the dead of night and wait several days until the city comes on takes away this "treasure"
My wife and I are going to be moving back to the States and I was wondering what are some ways in which we can sell and get rid of the furniture that we have bought? Any websites, other than this one, or companies that help with this sort of thing?
Thanks in advance.
Offer it for sale, or for free here. Get the salvation army, Ihop, or your local Brokenstübe to come round and take any good things. Leave it on the pavement with "gratis" written on it. Take it to the dump. Hire a skip.
Advertise on here - and I will come and grab as much as the wife likes - we have a 12-room house to furnish!
The Salvation Army won't take most things, unless they're antique or expensive - keep that in mind when you're trying to get rid of things that you don't sell. They also told me they don't take bookcases, anything IKEA, etc.
Well that is a shame because all we have is Ikea, gotta love cheap furniture. And thanks for the other offers, I will try and get pictures and conditions up ASAP.
