I have an old, nonfunctioning lawn mower that has a cracked front axel (the front wheels both bend outwards from under the mower. Would love to donate it to someone that could fix it up and maybe sell it or just use it, rather than having it thrown into a landfill.
Life beyond lawn mowers: Don’t go generic. Get Personalized Christmas Cards this year.

Well, there’s Goodwill and the Salvation Army. They take stuff like that. You could also use the parts to make a really cool go-cart.

either put an add in the paper to see if anyone wants it (you’d be surprised) or take it to a junk yard. They will use it for parts or scrap it for money.

Put it out in your front yard or close to the end of driveway with a FREE sign on it.

Leave it where someone can steal it.

has a good answer. I assume you can’t move it yourself. They can bring equipment and strong arms to move it for you.
You will be helping them and the mower will get a new life….Maybe? (((smile)))

You should post it in stores on their bulletins riding mower for parts free you would be surprised how many people want used mowers especially riding mowers for parts or they may have the same one and just need a part for.Or if you have a radio station that you can call and announce give aways do that also.Works wonders if you have those two opportunities where you live.Good luck to you.

Weld up the axle….. thats what’d I do…..
Or set it out with a for free sign on it….. if no takers then just slap for sale on it, and its sure to be taken. (some people are weird, think they are stealing it)

I had 2 riders and 2 pushmowers I lined up along the road with a free sign and they were gone in twenty minutes

Put it in your front yard with a sign on it that says free, it will disappear. Or call a local high school with a tech class for small engine’s and donate it to them, they can fix it and then sell it.

well, if you put it outside with a sign that says free no one will take it…so put it outside with a sign that says lawnmower for sale $50 and someone will probly steal it…you could also look up lawnmower repair people and see if they wanna just come and take it
