What's Free on Craigslist? Doors, Dirt and a TV

Find out what's free in Mission Viejo on Craigslist.

Is your favorite price "free?" Every day, Craigslist users buy and sell, and sometimes just give things away.

Here are some nearby giveaways looking for a home:

  • Free Couch/Loveseat: At least that's how the ad describes it. It's really a chair-and-a-half. And it needs some cleaning. Hey, it's free right? At least there are no holes. This one's on Via Mirlo. There's also a free sectional couch in Laguna Hills.
  • Free Fill Dirt: It's probably hard for some to imagine the value of free dirt. But the creator of this ad offers some helpful uses: "Good for filling holes from removed swimming pools or replacing washed away hillsides." It's about a truckload worth of dirt, so if you don't have a truck, better bring lots of buckets. Or maybe a trashbag-lined trunk?
  • Free 55" TV: Someone on Destino Way is giving away their heavy, rather large projection television. "Works great," the ad promises. And it's waiting for you in front of someone's garage.
  • Free Closet Doors: Well, if you need them, you need them. 48" by 93" doors in "excellent condition," according to the ad.
