Where would you advertise 2 large garden stones?

I need to get rid of 2 large ornamental/landscaping type garden stones.
I've put them on FB market place and gumtree.
Where else could they go?

Local paper?

Does get rid mean 'sell' or 'give'?

Freecycle or olio

I would post the listing to some local Facebook selling groups. So take your marketplace listing and share within related local groups. I can’t think of anywhere else. Generally, garden stuff goes on marketplace.

I would leave them on the pavement outside my house - someone is sure to take them when they pass by. One of our neighbours gave away loads of garden stones through our whatsapp group recently and had loads of people wanting them.

If you have a local community group WhatsApp you can put them up on there. Lots of offers of free children’s beds/garden furniture/ would anyone like this tree that’s fallen over.

Thanks all. Not had any interest, so I wondered if I was behind the times with selling places. Maybe people just don't want large stones! I would have thought a landscaper would have been interested though. Obviously not!

We have a local CRAP page on Facebook - Conserving Resources, Connecting People. It's a giveaway page, no selling and if you're caught selling on things you got off the page, you're kicked out.

I've got rid of SO much and gained other things 😂

A chap took my old damaged decking away for firewood last summer - we chopped it up and helped him load it. I've given away and received furniture, plates, bedding, curtains - you name it really. People are on there every day with kids clothes, toys, topsoil, rubble, plants... It's amazing!

So that's where I'd post it.

I use an app called TrashNothing.
