Recycling 

Before you book your bulk waste verge collection, consider selling, swapping or rehoming items in good condition items through Buy Nothing groups, Facebook Marketplace, eBay, or local op shops.

You could also host a garage sale or take part in the annual Garage Sale Trail to earn some extra cash.
