Dear Davis Square folks,
I've got various big clunky items sitting around mostly in various storage areas--a couple of dead TV sets, semi-dead stereo set, some furniture, etc. I really want to get rid of anything that can go before my next move and am researching various outfits such as 1-800-GOT-JUNK. (I've tried Freecycle, but this seems to be the sort of thing nobody wants except for professionals who make a living out of recycling rubbish.)
I was wondering whether any of you smart, sassy, crafty individuals have heard of locally based firms that do this kind of thing--and might potentially charge less than the big national firms.
Thanks and Happy Spring (we devoutly hope!)!

We've only given them things like computers/electronics/cables, and a lot of paper/cardboard, but it looks like they take furniture and stuff, too. Maybe worth a call to describe what you have:
