Dear Toronto-area people,

I'm moving from an apartment we furnished ourselves to a furnished one across the ocean, and it's time to get rid of most of the really big things that I own here. I need to have dealt with all of these things one way or another before the end of June, and the sooner I start, the more likely I am to finish in time.

All of you get first dibs, since you're so easy to coordinate with, and I'll look further afield - ads if necessary - in a few days for all the things you're collectively not interested in. Unfortunately, I don't have a car and thus can't drive anything over to you. Photos and measurements available of anything you'd like more information about.
