Do any charities take plastic plant pots?

 

I have accumulated a large number of plastic plant pots that I want to throw
out. Does anyone know of any charities or organisations that take these? It
would be a shame to put them in the dustbin.

I think we all accumulate heaps of these and in my area at least they
aren't allowed in the recycling waste.

Is there a local gardening group/club that might have a use for them? If
not you could try offering them online on your local freecycle group - a
good way of finding new homes for stuff you can't
sell but don't want to dump. See UK links on http://www.freecycle.org/

If you can't find anywhere else try a local NGS garden. Either they can
use them to pot up the plants for sale, or they can sell them off at the
plant sale table.

Or the local allotments association.

  Try local gardening clubs, or jumble sales with a plant stall, or
plant swaps, or local primary schools.

 I've found they get snapped up if you sort them into matching stacked 10's.

Ask at the charity shops: one of them accepted a stack from me once -- I
