Dear Neighbors, We just spent time in the British Virgin Islands where we heard about a great program - Pack With a Purpose (https://www.packforapurpose.org/) You can use extra space in your luggage to bring supplies to the local people who work so hard to make your vacation enjoyable! "Give the king justice, O God, and your righteousness to a king's son. May he judge your people with righteousness, and your poor with justice." Psalm 72:1-2 Praying for peace; working for justice, Sarah J Heppenstall

One very comfy, beige, pleather(?) amchair, free to whoever wants it! Moving out and downsizing, but the chair is in good shape- just the average amount of wear on the material. Text me for arranging a pickup time: 412-626-9081 Thanks, Chloe

Hi all, Our yard is in the process of being redone. We have some perfectly good perennials that could be salvaged. There’s a nice sized hydrangea, an Japanese peony, some native meadow flowers. The deal is they need to go ASAP. Work started today (Wednesday) and will continue tomorrow. Email me if you’d like to come pick/dig them up. Thanks, Dora Magovern -- Dora P.

Thank you everyone that replied to my post about what to do with old laptops. I am going to be donating them to Computer Reach on Lexington Ave in Point Breeze. Just go to their website and fill out the necessary form to contact them saying you’d like to donate. I also want to mention, for those of you that may want to donate to them they can run a removal program on your computer to erase everything for a $25 fee. Thanks again everyone! -Marlo

free baby, toddler & preschool girl clothing
by Martha Riecks 20 Jun '18

20 Jun '18

Hi Neighbors - Cleaning out our attic and I have several bags of girl's clothes that are FREE to whomever can use them/wants them! Please pick up from my porch at 1125 Winterton St. (uphill side of the street, so you'll need to be able to deal with a flight of stairs from the street). Please don't come by after dark as that will likely disturb my dog. - small bag size 12-18 - large bag size 3T - large bag size 4T - large bag of random sizes that I know has with a handful of newborn pieces, lots of baby/toddler sized clothing and possibly has a few preschool sizes mixed in too. I think all the bags have a mix of seasons and items from jackets to pjs to shorts/shirts/dresses/skirts. All items are gently worn, some are hand-me-downs we received but I think they're all still useable. Please take the entire bag and pass on whatever you don't like, can't use. Enjoy, Martha -- Martha Riecks mriecks(a)gmail.com

Moving Company Responses
by Laura S 20 Jun '18

20 Jun '18

For those who inquired about the responses I received in regard to moving companies: TWO MEN AND A TRUCK. Good experience. Good customer service. Prompt. Gardner. used this company 2X, 10 yrs apart, totally satisfied each time. /www.gardnermovingpgh.com <http://www.gardnermovingpgh.com> Flat Rate Movers. Have used them several times. Very professional. Deliver within a week, as opposed to a 3 week window with other moving companies. If your move is local Erik's Moving & Hauling is the best. They have moved me 4 times. Nice crew, locally owned, reasonable prices. (412) 758-9736 Two Men & a Truck! have used them about 5 times, always pleased! Movin Murdy did a great job for us a couple years ago - https://movinmurdy.com/#!/ We moved in Dec. and used Stumps. They did a very good job and everything was put in place carefully. They wrapped the furniture with drawers so nothing fell out and nothing was damaged. I had a terrific experience with Two Men and a Truck. They were on time, professional, And worked nonstop. Nothing was damaged or broken. Made moving day almost painless. Do NOT use Calfo Redline. Horrible experience. I used Two Men and a Truck twice. The first time was to unload a budget truck that I had driven to the city myself. They showed up late because the move before me had taken a lot longer than they thought it would. That being said they brought an extra guy with them and were nice and efficient and worked really hard. They also did call to tell me that they were running late. the second time I used them was for a local move from Highland Park to Morningside. They did a nice job, wrapped all my furniture well, and were really efficient. I would use them again. Eric the mover is really great. Never damaged anything in three different moves. Very professional and reliable. Eric412-758-9736 I recommend Alex Carson, who can be reached via email: movingforwardpittsburgh(a)gmail.com <mailto:movingforwardpittsburgh@gmail.com> . I used his services twice in the last few months and found him to do excellent work. I had a good experience twice with Two Guys and a Truck, but this was probably 6 years ago.
