10 More FREE Recycled Items Recently Found, Saved & Sold For $1,068...
Instead of posting recycling finds with projected profit as they happen, I'm going to try only showing things I've sold for more accurate results.
I want to show how there's value in items you may not initially recognize and motivate others to try freecycling/upcycling. While it may sound like labor, it truly is easy money, and it's very rewarding.
While I'm just showing a few items here, I'm finding tons of free stuff. It's more than I can handle, but a good problem because I don't have to thrift nearly as much anymore.
Dollar amounts are the revenue from the sale, not the net profit after shipping and fees.
Largest sized platter of this particular vintage style found on top of some bags - sold for $215.

$1,068 in revenue for having fun finding stuff sitting right on the curbs near my apartment! Remember, this is just 10 items... I find tons, so the revenue potential for you is high even if you just want to dabble a little.
Goals: Rewarding fun work, happy customers helping me save items from the landfill, and no-risk money earned to support myself. Win-win-win.

Nice work my friend . Thanks for sharing @steemmatt
Great job. That platter looks like mint condition. I'm still amazed at all the stuff you find!
It had some crazing on it and one tiny chip underneath, but was otherwise excellent. Not bad for it being handled by whoever put it out on the curb. I do find a lot of stuff that gets broken in the process, so this in its condition is rarer for that reason.
What platform do you sell these on?

I mainly use eBay and Craigslist, but am ramping up more on Etsy.
