A
mm in
Buffalo, there is a former
gas station/minimart of
which Polly E. Mathys,
Spring City, Pa. is part
owner. She writes: “We are
selling the ground, and the
building will in all likelihood
be torn down. In this build
ing are store-type items
such as display shelves, a
walk-in cooler with five
glass door fronts, and five
6-foot-long chest coolers
(you know the kind you
reach into in the store to
get your Popsicle or what
not). The buyer of the
ground doesn’t want them
and neither do we. But
rather than get a certified
refrigerant remover to
come in and then trash all
this equipment, we’re look
ing for a food bank, a farm,
a produce stand, or whoev
er to come to Williamsville
and claim these items.
None of this stuff is new,
but to our knowledge, it all
worked the last time the
electricity was on.” Call
Polly at (610) 495-6185 for
more information.
