One more way that people can "recycle" items is to gift them to someone when they no longer need them, OR even creatively reuse them for a new purpose beyond the original one.

The ReUseIt Network has groups all around the world doing this very thing. Our members gift items they no longer need to someone else who can use them.

We also promote creative reuse, such as an old freezer becoming a snail farm and old baby walker becoming tomato cages.
