We bought 2 chairs and 2 umbrellas rather than use the beach service at like 90 dollars... We leave Sat. We did this last year too and left them by a dumpster and someone picked them up before the trash came but if anyone here wants them call us Friday 240 401
4651. I noticed a goodwill in destin but I don't know if we'll have time to take them there.

Way to recycle! :clap_1:
I love stuff like this.
I gave away a bunch of stuff through Craigslist before we moved here.
There is also Freecyle.
But here--there is Beaches of SoWal messageboard. :)

You guys kept telling me to go with the flow... So I figured bending the rules fit right in with that. Besides I was pretty amazed someone called within five minutes!!!!!!

The best is finding a rental company that has beach chair and umbrella setup as part of their fee. But, if you don't go that route, bring your own from home, the kind that fold flat (easier for packing).

We bought some beach chairs at KMart last year-the Martha Stewart brand. Someone on this site said they were the best beach chairs, and after 2 years with them, I agree. They fold flat, they have wide wooden arms; they're great.

We have the kind that have a foot rest and then fold up into a bag, they are great and easy to carry. Actually the other night used them outside for a party and when we pulled them out of the bags some beautiful white sand fell out of the chairs. Just made me miss the beach so much.

OK, here's a question for the owners on the board.
We always buy chairs and umbrellas while we're down there.
Usually not the expensive kind, since we
never seem to have room in the car on the trip home.
Should we just leave these items at the unit, for the next
renters to use if they want to? Or does the rental company
just throw them away?
Someone should open a recycled beach chair shop. :)

Talk to SJ about recycling. :rolling:
I would leave them for the next crew and they will leave them on the beach. :lol:

Hi!
I hope someone got our chairs/umbrellas. We ended up having to leave them by the trash can for someone to come pick up.
I've always been afraid to leave them at the unit for fear I'd get slammed with a $50 fee for "not removing my property" or something. (We use rental agencies to find our rentals)

We keep two big and two kids' chairs and two umbrellas at our unit. Nothing too expensive but they are fine to use and easy to replace when necessary. We would certainly not be bothered if more were left behind for other guests. Many of our guests have left behind the plastic beach or pool toys, and that is very much appreciated. I can't imagine our management company would have a problem with it. :idontno:

I have left beach chairs at rental units several times & never had owners or management companies complain. You can always use an extra beach chair at the beach.

Please please - leave them in the rental unit. I love it when we come down and find a few left behind - We leave a few for our renters and I think they appreciate it. We leave ours in the laundry room for the guests - along with a small cooler for them to use on the beach.

Our rental didn't leave any chairs because they wanted us to use a chair rental service. The service was too expensive for us to want to use it.
