Author Info Last Updated: November 10, References. Method 1. Drive through neighborhoods that have bulk pick-ups offered by the city, and check out what people have put out for collection. Think outside the box when you see certain items.

For instance, you may not want a big armoire with a missing door, but look at it as a source of free lumber or hardware, such as hinges and door pulls. Method 2. Check the dumpster area of large apartment buildings periodically, especially when it's close to pick-up day.

The things some people throw away could be free construction material for you. Watch for carpeting or area rugs, large pieces of furniture to use as lumber for other projects and paint. Method 3. Look around your home for items you no longer need.

Perhaps you can find someone who has something you need, and you can arrange a trade. Newspapers and some online websites often have an area set aside for trades. You list what you have to trade and what you need while checking out the ads placed by others.

This is often an excellent resource for free flooring materials such as carpeting or area rugs and lighting fixtures. Method 4. Visit your local recycling center where there is often an area set aside filled with odds and ends that are free for the taking.

Most cities now have some sort of recycling group set up where members can list items they no longer need. This is an excellent source for finding free kitchen cabinets from people installing new cabinets themselves.

Method 5. Visit your community dump if they allow it. Wear heavy duty clothing, gloves and eye protection as you never know what you will encounter. Many construction companies use the city dumps to dispose of material that they can't use or that they feel is not worth reclaiming.

But you won't have the labor costs involved to strip paint from old windows and doors or to remove nails from lumber that the company would have, so it could be a great find for you. Method 6. Visit your local paint stores and see if they have an "Oops" shelf.

Many times the paint color is not quite what the customer wanted, and they return it to the store. Rather than dispose of it, the store offers it to customers for free. Visit your local flooring stores and check for freebies. They often give away small sections of carpeting that may be stained or too small to sell, odd lots of tiles or pieces of vinyl flooring.

While they may be too small by themselves to cover a floor, you could mix and match remnants to cover a room. Check out the dumpsters at various stores and commercial buildings to see what they have available.

Even if what you find is not useful as construction material, you may be able to trade it for something useful to you, such as nails, screws or other odds and ends. Method 7. Check to see if there is a local Freecycle for your area. You can do this by entering the word Freecycle with your county and state or province in your search engine.

When you find a group, you will need to join. After you join, put the word out. Explain what you're looking for in the "Wanted" part. Check to see if the item you're looking for is already available. Also take the time to offer something you have but don't need around your house.

This makes the whole deal nice and reciprocal. Where else could I find boards that are free, aside from your already mentioned tips? Maybe go to a construction site and ask the superior if he will give you sheetrock and other surplus materials.

We're glad this was helpful. Thank you for your feedback. If you want to scent the mist with essential oils, just add a few drops to your water.

The vertical strainer design keeps the hair out of sight without letting it go down the drain. This pair of pillows feel like expensive down, but are better in a few clever ways. For one, you can adjust the fill level to get exactly the firmness you want.

Too firm? Take some out. Not firm enough? Steal some filling from the other pillow for yours. Both pillows — filling and all — can go in the washing machine so you can have a just-cleaned pillow anytime you want.

Over 7, people give them five stars. Instead of digging around under the cabinet to find your cleaning supplies, hang this clever shelf over the door, with the basket hanging inside or out, and keep the things you most search for right at hand.

It works in the kitchen to hold everything from pan lids to onions, or in your office to hold notepads or other sundries. It comes in three finishes and four sizes.

This super soft, thread-count comforter cover feels like it should cost so much more money. The microfiber threads are so thin — like silk — that the result is a deliciously soft cover that is also lightweight, with none of the cost of silk or high-thread-count cotton.

One trick that I learned was to make everything I often reach for as easily accessible as possible. And that idea guided my decisions as I chose everything from tiered shelving to devices that make my appliances easier to store and access to storage solutions. Mount this inch long, powder-coated wall rack — with 15 S-hooks — behind the sink so just-washed pans can drip dry or on the wall behind the stove so your pans and utensils are right where you want them, instead of buried in a cupboard.

It turns your tools into the decor, makes working in the kitchen more convenient, and frees up cupboard space. Install this ceiling light in a closet, hallway, pantry, or anywhere you want the light to come on for you when approach and turn off again when you are gone.

Not only is this super convenient but the light this light throws is bright enough to illuminate all the corners of your closet or bathroom. It has two modes so you can set it to turn on only at night or whether it is night or day.

Choose from cool or warm white light. When your coffee machine, mixer, or other appliances sit under an overhead cabinet, you have to haul it out whenever you want to use it.

This appliance glider makes that once-onerous task so easy. Just press the lever and the tray — and the appliance on top — glide forward and slide back with so little struggle you can do it with one finger. It comes in two sizes.

These decorative wall shelves are great for creating a book nook, spice rack, bar, bathroom storage, or whatever else you can imagine. Just choose the color that suits your space — there are nine options — and mount them in an artful grouping.

They come with all the necessary mounting hardware in three sizes that create a decorative, graduated effect. Store everything from pasta and flour to fresh-baked muffins and produce in these stackable containers that fit neatly on shelves.

There are two large one gallon and seven smaller about half-gallon containers and they come with a set of chalkboard stickers and even a marker for labeling them. Peel and stick or use the included screws to set up this battery-operated motion sensing light inside a closet, under the cabinets, or in any dark corner and it will come on when it senses motion, and turn off again 20 seconds later.

Set it to turn on only at night or when ambient light is needed to suit your situation. Set this comfortable anti-fatigue mat down on the floor where you work to soften the surface and give feet, legs, and back a break from hard surfaces.

Over 9, people give it five stars. Stick these door bumpers to cabinet doors and drawers to soften the sound when people bang them closed. Stick them to the underside of a tile to create your own trivet or coasters. It is surprising how helpful these clear, rubbery, stick-on, sound-softening bumpers can be all over the house.

This outlet extender will fix that. Plug it into a standard two-plug outlet, replacing the center screw with the one that comes with it, and you will have six standard plugs, two USB ports, and a dusk-to-dawn, smart night light too if you wish.

This double-sided carpet tape is just the thing to keep rugs from curling up, crumpling when the pets scamper over them, or sliding — potentially dangerously — out from under feet.

It sticks to the underside of rugs and to whatever flooring surface is under them, be that carpet, tile, laminate, and beyond. The tape is both strong and moisture resistant so you can use it indoors or out. This decorative, rustic, framed-bulb lamp plugs into any outlet and acts as a dusk-to-dawn nightlight, making it a super simple way to make dark entries safer, illuminate a dark corner of the kitchen, or keep a bathroom or garage lit at night.

And to do so with a bit of flair. The light is bright enough to light a small space, cool to the touch, and you never have to replace the LED bulb. It comes in three styles and finishes.

This attractive wall-mounted hook provides a place to hang towels and bathrobes in the bathroom, coats or bags in the entry, and hot mitts and dishtowels in the kitchen. The matte finish is modern and decorative, and the low-profile hook with two prongs is easy to sneak into a lot of situations.

It comes with all the necessary mounting hardware and detailed instructions. Skip the electrician and hefty bill in favor of peeling-and-sticking this wireless doorbell at the entry instead. Plug the receivers into an outlet in the rooms where you want to hear the alert and, voila, you have a new doorbell.

The bell and receivers pair at the touch of a button and you can choose your favorite ring tone from 52 available. The bell part is durable enough to withstand the weather, and the system has a meter range so it will work in large homes. It comes in black and white and you can add more receivers if you need them.

If your room — or home — is loud and cold, there is probably a gap under the door that lets in sound and drains your efforts at heating and cooling. This is so easy to fix with this two-pack of door-draft stoppers.

Just cut one to fit any door and peel-and-stick it to the bottom of the door. It works for an entry or inside door. In addition to keeping your heat and air conditioning in and the noise out, the flexible two-layer insulation keeps insects from finding a way in.

It comes in four colors. Set this handy sink caddy down next to the sink and instantly stop the wet spot, spilled soap, and clutter. It has a space for sponges, soap, and brushes, and it directs all the water and soap that drips off your gear into a basin in the bottom.
