I have various items I need to clear out of the house including a large 22" Mitsubishi CRT Monitor, a Toshiba DVD player and a Sharp HiFi. I've Gumtreed and Freecycled them with no responses. Should I take them to the council refuse site or are there alternative ways of donating/selling them on?

eBay would be a more popular choice, perhaps a carboot sale would be a good idea!

I don't think the CRT monitor will be of much use nowadays but HiFis and DVD players sell well on eBay.

don't try and give them away, you'd have better luck selling them on
most people won't wanna know if its free! recylce, and make a profit man!
try putting an ad on gumtree again, make sure you list all items seperate, try and get photographs.
also try and have a look around at other items similar to yours, and see how much there selling them for.
if all else fails, donate to a charity shop.

a little extra:
ebay is another good idea, i agree. as for your crt monitor, you can shift that easily enough, with the cheapest crapiest tft starting at £50 brand new i dont think you'll have a problem selling the crt, 22" at at least £15!
