Live in an apartment: you don't have to think about it.

Though I can't say how it works everywhere, but here in Sweden all apartment buildings have trash rooms or separate "houses" with bins for everything (food waste, plastics, metal, glass etc). And many have areas of those rooms, or separate rooms, for leaving stuff that isn't broken so others can take what's there. About half my furniture, electronics and other random stuff are from those. I often check mine and the one where my mom lives and have a friend group chat for sharing what we find and don't want ourselves. It's also pretty common to collect stuff there and transport it to places where it's given to people in need, stuff like clothing, entertainment (books, board games, dvds etc.), kitchen ware and so on.
