Similarly in the Netherlands we have Kringloopwinkels.

Sort of related is one of my favorite things in NL: the “mini bibliotheek”, the free for all bookcases to share books (often placed in front of a house by the residents).

In the US, the "mini bibliotheek" is called a "Little Free Library". There are four or five within a fifteen-minute walk of where I live.
