nature strips

I think I mentioned nature strips a while back - the big of land that in the UK would be called the verge, and may have a concrete pavement (or in my suburb, more likely not).

As well as being the defacto pavement, they are also the place where you put stuff that you don't want anymore, but others might....

Because recycling is "a good thing" and waste disposal is chargable (if it won't go in one of your 4 wheelie bins - general, glass and plastic, garden and paper) people put stuff like old(er) tvs, tables, chairs, even sofas and cookers out on the strip in front of their house, in the hope that someone else will want it.
(I did see a very nice 50's tumble dryer the otherday....)
