On the flyer from the council it says its illegal! But you're right, it's like a sport around here! We were chatting the other day and most people I know have had door knockers asking to take things. I haven't, but we generally donate things.
This year (last fortnight) I had the kids old high chair out - st kilda mums only want really new ones, and no one wanted it for 99 cents on eBay! It went overnight! Which is great. Recycling!
Hard rubbish is big business here. Someone in my area got fined for taking something off hard rubbish, so I guess it's illegal. It was all over the news. People drive around the streets here with trailers, stop at every pile and take what they want.
