I had that situation a month or so ago, listed patio furniture for free and made it clear that a) I want it gone asap, b) I would not deliver and c) they would need a pick up truck to fit the stuff. You don't need to post an address until you choose the person that can pick up asap and has the truck.

You do get a fair number of responses, but if you have someone indicating they are on the way, you can remove the listing or change it to "Pending" which should cut down on the responses. Worked for me, anyways.

O.K. there has been a lot of talk on whether or not MacTavish has actually done a good job for us, most fans on this board are very basic in their analysis and I feel would change their opinion entirely if the team was successful.
