Our local tip has a area set aside for selling stuff - they positively
encourage recycling - as long as they get some cash.
I've even managed to 'order' an item from our lot as they run a number
of local tips and called back a few days later to collect it.

I wanted a 'calor' gas cylinder to use as an air receiver.
They wanted a tenner but said I only had £4 in cash which seemed to be
acceptable and was trousered in milliseconds.

Service being made less user friendly.
