Hardwaste Bounty
Hardwaste is when people discard large household objects out the front of their house to be picked up by local

councils. We know the secret is out but we have been hardwaste hoarders for a number of years - it is our secret bounty. Keep your eyes open while hardwaste is out as you never know what you will find. Mostly the objects are good to use in the garden particulary for garden art or for building.
Here is where we used a particularly beautiful classic old style telly – bound for the tip now a feature shelf at our doorway. Mostly we collect wood and metal for building as this is a really sustainable option; recycling objects that were going to the tip and saving us buying brand new metal or wood. Other most useful hardwaste items include shelves, chairs and tables. We even picked up a new (but old) microwave on the hardwaste the day after our one died – and it’s still going strong after 12 months of continual use!
Unfortunately we lost loads of hardwaste goodies in our shed during the bushfire, but once we get to rebuilding a new shed we will have loads of space to collect new hardwaste – WARNING HARDWASTE COLLECTING IS HIGHLY ADDICTIVE BEHAVIOUR!
