What do I do with my old range/oven?

Question

I bought a new stove because, well- I wanted a new one. The old one is nothing special, but it does work. I need to get rid of the old one, but since it's just me, I an unable to haul it anywhere myself. I am looking for someone to just come pick it up. Would a thrift store do this? Someone looking for scrap metal? Where are these people? Suggestions please!

Answer 1

try craigslist, they always have people looking for stuff as well as willing to haul off things.

Answer 2

Go on google & see if there is a "Freecycle" in your area. You can post a notice about your stove on a locally-oriented news group and people who want it will come get it & take it away for free. It worked great for me when I had to get rid of some old furniture and some ranch gates.

Answer 3

CALL THE SALVATION ARMY STORE    THEYLL PICK IT UP

Answer 4

In my area, we have a "freecycle" network. It is through yahoo groups. You can post that you have a stove to give away and anyone who needs it will contact you and pick it up. You can also post if you are searching for a specific item. All items are free.  I am sure it works much the same as craigslist. It's amazing what people are "freecycling"

Answer 5

Sell it  or give it away on Craigslist, otherwise put it outside with a sign that says "free."  if you feel like spending a little dough, put an ad in the classifieds.
