Call us now on 0212203694 or 063782123 to book your delivery.Winter is the best time to apply mulch to your gardens. It will protect your plants from excess drenching in heavy rain as it acts as a sponge by soaking up the water then slowly releasing it into the soil below, (Just as it happens in nature on the forest floor.) Mulch also acts a a layer of insulation on top of soil protecting your plants root systems from temperature extremes ie frosts.

You may be more mechanically adept than me and be able to get it to work though!

Price: $5

It's true that you agreed to a legally binding contract as soon as you drove into the parking lot. Thankfully, New Zealand law protects consumers from the exploitative clauses that corporates love to slip in the fine print.

Under contract law, parking companies can only claim for "the actual and reasonable costs they incurred". Charging $65 for a short overstay in an empty carpark is as far from reasonable as you can get.

Our Samsung fridge freezer has been working without issue for the past 15-ish years but the compressor is starting to make some strange noises. It’s generally is good condition for a 15 year old fridge that’s spent the last 10 years working in a household garage.
We’ve decided to replace rather than try and repair ...sooo...
If you can make use of fridge/freezer that is making strange noises but still appears to be working, or if you want to try and repair it to make it better... it’s yours free of charge.
The model number is in one of the photos.
Pick up for this weekend would be ideal; this Friday is also possible.
Thanks!!
