BuyNothing Guidelines [Mod Post] Post Guideline Reminders

89 Upvotes

When posting in PDXBuyNothing, please write simple titles with a clear Seeking or Gifting.

- Try to use titles with SEEK or GIFT, the item, and a neighborhood (if you feel comfortable sharing location)

- Avoid titles lacking any details like “Free pile” or “Seeking”

- Avoid long titles containing off topic details like jokes or personal stories

Specifically when posting seeking help, please write a clear ask for specific items, or specific help.

PDXBuyNothing is designed for direct peer-2-peer mutual aid in your Portland community, not a subreddit for generic “seeking help” posts asking for advice or discussion. While well intentioned, these kind of posts devolve into off-topic discussion that rarely relates to direct PDX mutual aid, and these posts are also magnets for new/bot accounts posting spam seeking monetary assistance.

Community Post Will drive you and your ballot to ballot drop site - Johnson Creek Area

249 Upvotes

I am happy to drive YOU and your ballot to a drop site.

This is NOT an offer to drop off your ballot: you will have custody from your door to the drop site. I won’t ask you how you voted, and request that your ballot be completed before you get into my car.

Why do I do this?

I consider voting a sacred duty for citizens, and have a spouse who can’t drive due to disability, so I extend this offer to others.

If you need help getting to a ballot drop site, I am more than happy to help. DM me.

I reviewed the rules and don’t see anything prohibiting this post, Mods, but am happy to make any alterations to make this acceptable.

SEEKING ISO carpets and throw rugs for my preschool!

Thumbnail

70 Upvotes

Hello!

I teach at a local preschool in SE, and last Friday we entered our classroom to find it had been completely flooded! We were able to save much of our furniture, but our rugs were completely destroyed!

We are looking for either large pieces of carpet or many area rugs to keep our kids safe while they play!

The measurements of the three areas of our classroom are roughly:

14’ x 12’
17’ x 13’
15’ x 12’

If anyone has any kind of throw rug or carpet they are willing to part with it would be a huge help for our school!!

Thank you!!

Just cracked myself up by using the word PUNCHcard. 😂

Everything in the photo. Gloves are 14 oz. Gloves and wraps have been used but it has been a few years and they are clean, no stains. I have a cat so if you are highly allergic this isn’t for you, though they have been kept (this stuff, not the cat) in the trunk of my car.

I live in the Pearl. Will let this sit for a bit to determine if I’ll need to do a drawing - will update when I’ve decided. Thanks!

EDIT: Will do a drawing for it tomorrow morning.

I only wore this for one season, it’s a good coat but not the best fit for me (but I did like it!). I know coats can be expensive so I wanted to pass this one along to a good home / someone that needs it.

Some of the Sherpa lining around the shoulders / bottom of the hood is matted from use. You can kind of see it in the second photo, upper right hand corner.

If there is enough interest, I’ll do a raffle.

Located in SE Woodstock.

AVAILABLE Free: Kids bicycle with 24" wheels, for tween or young teen

Thumbnail
gallery
34 Upvotes

ETA: pickup in downtown Portland (near Pioneer Courthouse square), OR in NW Portland (Wed / Fri / Sat, near Providence Park).

Free: bike with 24" wheels (see pics). I picked up this bike from a local bicycle non-profit, and gave it a good cleaning and a tune-up. It is now in good working condition (note: the shift cable that is shown not connected in the pics has now been reinstalled correctly). I am looking to give this bike to a family with a kid that is currently the right height for the bike: around 4'6" to 4'10" in height.

Note: this is a kids bike, and it is sized for a kid who has outgrown his or her 20"-wheeled bike. It is too small for nearly all adult riders. If you're an adult and you need a bike, please leave a comment and I'll see what I can do to help you out.

Note #2: if your kid is currently 5 years old and 45" tall, then I'm sorry but I'm not going to give you the bike, because your kid is many years away from being able to ride a 24"-wheeled bike.

Note #3: this is not a first-come-first-served offer, and there won't be a raffle either. Because I feel there are downsides to both of those methods. So if you are interested in getting this bike for your kid, please take a few minutes to leave a more-than-one-word comment below (comments that include the current height of your kid will be prioritized, one-word comments will be basically ignored).
