Maybe people who are interested in these things should post a message. When a
box turns up with an excess of wheels or regular bricks, it could be sent to
that person next.
Or, when someone gets a box that has "too much" of some common elements, they
can post a message, looking for a recipient who is interested in taking it.
More generally: don't use the Jambalaya boxes as a dumping ground, people! Put
in stuff which you genuinely believe someone else will value.
