Anyone know about recylcing centres? Would this be possible?

Bowski, 30 May, 2009 at 22:22 Posted on Off Topic Posts 0 5

Mr B and I are after an old oven shelf to go in the bottom of our BBQ (don't ask) anyway we were wondering if it would be possible to keep checking the local recycling centre to see if anyone has taken an old oven there and then ask if we could take the shelf. Do you think they'd let us do that?

Also any other ideas on how we could get hold of one?

Thanks.

    It's worth a try. I see no reason why they wouldn't let you take it unless you get some jobs worth who starts quoting you rules and regulation re removal of items. Our tip always has loads of ovens.

    You could try Freecycle, or a local 2nd hand cooker dealer who may have what you are looking for.

    Thats promising, hopefully we'll be able to cook a turkey on the BBQ when we get the shelf! It's my dad's tip for getting the charcoal to light and stay lit for ages as it allows air to get under the charcoal.

    The people at our recycling centres always try and keep the good stuff back and sell it on. They have a little section near their portacabin office with their 'for sale' section. And there are always a load of old white goods like ovens. If you offer to give them a couple of quid (if anything like our recycling centres) I bet they will gladly let you have one of those shelves.
