    Default Three seater garden swing

    I have one 3 seater garden swing seat (similar to the one in below pic) around 10 years old.

    No longer needed at home and is currently in pieces for transporting. Slightly weathered but sill in good working order. Was sitting and swinging on it 6 weeks ago before dismantling it. Will post a pic of it broken down fro travel when and if I can get one.

    Currently at our factory in Moolap (Geelong) Cost of a new one is in the high $600 range.

    FREE - Pickup only - trailer or van required to take it away.
    Also advertised in swap and Free forum below

    Please respond in this thread for more info or to take it.

    I'm tempted to get it just because it is free. Room for it in the front but no way of collecting it as we just gave away the trailer to a nephew who needed on badly and in a hurry

    Ted, it might fit in a station wagon or a decent SUV since it's dismantled. It probably came in a flat pack box originally.

    Hello Moondoggie and Uncle.

    Sorry for the delayed response. Subscription alert didn't alert me. I guess it isn't working on here as this is the first I've seen the replies... Best I check it out. I looked in on it every few days for 7 weeks and gave up looking at the end of October. A day too early. Doh!

    Anyway. To the matter at hand. It is broken down into 3 sections (the frame section the seat and the roof/cover) and Should fit in/on standard 6x4 single axle trailer.

    If it were me I'd be asking nephew if he would mind picking it up for you being as how you helped him out with the gift of a I suppose free) trailer. He might be happy enough to do it for you. If not repossess the trailer from him. If it was my nephew he's be more than happy to help out. He'd even put it back together for me after picking it up and delivering it, and he lives half a state away.

    If you want it let me know and I will hang onto it for a little while longer for you. Otherwise it's going out on the verge sometime in the next few weeks.

    Cheers - Neil

    Well Cecile just said no 'It was a gentle "No" and no bodilly parts were in danger
    Put it on the nature strip and put a $10- sign on it and it will be gone in the morning

    Is it charcoal / grey as in the stock photo? I almost have the missus convinced...

    Sorry missed this one. For some reason I'm not getting notification of replies.

    Yep 'tis that charcoal colour Slightly different, more stable configuration than the one in the pic and was a fair bit dearer the the bunnies one in the picture. It's stuck away in the what was museum at the factory so still can't get to it for a photo. There's a bit of dried up mossy/scale stuff on the outside top of roof. Should wash off reasonably easily. Left it on because it gave extra shading from the sun.

    Have spent many hours in it. Very comfortable.

    Happy to hang on to it for a while if the boss comes round.

    Cheers
