If you leave it out with a note that says Free it will be gone by tomorrow. If you leave it out with a note that says For Sale, it will be gone by nightfall. With all the landscape crews that come through our neighborhood, if I put something out too big for trash or for me to haul to Goodwill, with a Free to a Good Home sign, it is always gone by the end of the day.
No sign needed. If it’s on that side of my hedges, it’s fair game. I’ve gotten rid of other non-functioning A/C’s that way. My old gas grill. I even had someone take my wife’s old broken food processor earlier this year.
It broke while making cheesecake. We didn’t clean the bowl out.
When someone took it the next day, I commented to the wife that I was pretty sure a raccoon or something was licking it before it was taken.
Ew.
