I have been given a whole bin bag of rotastak stuff, base unit and lots of little 'rooms' and loads of tubes, I have read loads of bad reports and it looks fiddly to
clean, is there anything in your honest opinion I can use it for or shall I bin it (plastic recycling bin)

I hate Rotacrap so personally I would bin it lol

I wouldn't use it as an actual cage but the tubes and smaller houses can be used inside a mouse/small hammies cage.

i use the little tubes i put them in my dwarf cages they seem too use them

only thing i use rotacrap for is for hospital cages (the kidney pods only)
rather then binning them you could donate them to a rescue as spare emergency housing

sell them on ebay and donate the money.
I have rotastak attached to my gerbil tank for my hamster.

If you have gerbils I've seen quite a few impressive posts on here where people have attached them above tanks and made them look like quite a nice home (and gerbils don't tend to need a big clean out as often as hamsters). I wouldn't personally throw them out just in case. I have an awful, tiny, little cage that I bought of ebay ages ago and it looked bigger in the picture. Still I haven't thrown it because I've had to do a last minute rescue once before and so it has served as a very temporary home whilst I was out shopping for a new home. You never know what's around the corner. And I would rather have an emergency cage at hand just in case. Better a little friend spends a couple of hours in a small cage than being in worse situations.

personally i wouldnt sell them, as you will get some one buy them maybe thinking they make a great cage by them selves

I dunno, whenever I've bought them off ebay they've had a note to say that they should not be used as a cage on its own. You could always write that.
Tbh people are going to buy/use it wether you sell it or not, there is loads of rotastak out there. My hammy loves his and you do get people that are responsible with it

Thanks for your help. It's gone into the loft, whilst I decide what animals to get next, my last 2 rescue ratties have both died now so down to 1 dog and 2 rabbits.
