Community Zero Waste

Waste less, together with your neighbours.

We'd like to live in a world that isn't obsessed with money: one where good things can come to us for free. Community makes that possible, with neighbours helping neighbours. Use this site to give and receive, for free: your time, advice, friendship and stuff.

Give things away, offer a lift to the shops, share skills and make use of items in the free tool library. All in your local community.

Stuff

  • Give away

    Giving something away for free? Post it in our local Facebook group.

  • Wanted

    Ask your neighbours for something you need, for free.

  • Free tool library

    Borrow tools and equipment from neighbours instead of buying, and lend your own.

Services

  • Offer help

    Give a neighbour a hand: a lift, some shopping, a bit of gardening.

  • Request help

    Need help with something? You're not alone. Ask, and a neighbour may be able to help.

  • Skills

    Share a skill or find someone to learn from.

Places

  • Events

    Repair cafés, litter picks, swap shops and workshops.

  • Zero waste shopping

    Cafés that fill your own cup, refill shops and more. Are you a business doing your bit? Let's hear about it.

Chat

  • Local discussions

    Chat with neighbours: questions, tips and ideas. Got a free afternoon? Don't be lonely, meet someone for a cup of tea.

  • General discussions

    Talk about waste less living with everyone on the site.

What we're about

We believe life gets better when it's less about money and more about each other. Most of what we need is already nearby: a ladder in a neighbour's shed, someone who knows how to fix a bike, a spare hour for a cuppa. This site helps you find it.

Everything here is free. Give what you can, ask for what you need, and get to know the people around you.
