King of Garage Sales - 20 October 2018

Households, community groups, schools, charities and community-minded local businesses are encouraged to be part of Moree’s Garage Sale Trail second-hand market and car-boot sale at Jellicoe Park on Saturday 20 October 2018 from 10am-2pm.

Moree Plains Shire Council’s Waste Support Officer Dayna Kross explained Council is hosting the second-hand market and car-boot sale and encouraging locals to sell their unwanted household goods such as clothes, toys, kitchenware and sporting equipment from the boot of a vehicle, back of a truck or trailer or a marquee stall setup at Jellicoe Park.

“This year’s initiative is to create the king of garage sales and have everyone participate in selling their pre-loved goods and equipment at one location, creating a market atmosphere at Jellicoe Park on Saturday 20 October.”

“This sustainability event helps people come together as a community to re-think what waste really is and how we can reuse items so they don’t end up in landfill,” said Mrs Kross.

Residents are encouraged to declutter and make some money by hosting a garage sale as part of @GarageSaleTrail event at Jellicoe Park on 20 October 2018.

There are no fees for participating in the market, but you must register via the Garage Sale Trail website https://www.garagesaletrail.com.au/sale/1366 or through Council’s Waste team by phoning (02) 6757 3222.  On the day, just bring your own tables to display your goods on, chairs and shelters; or a vehicle filled with your pre-loved items for sale.

This event is not for the purpose of commercial trade or the home hobbyist (arts and crafts); however local businesses can participate if they wish to sell second-hand or unwanted business equipment such as desks, chairs, electronic goods or tools.

To follow the @GarageSaleTrail and grab a bargain, you can subscribe to the website and get updates or search for local area sales.

The Moree’s Garage Sale Trail second-hand market and car-boot sale initiative is hosted by Moree Plains Shire Council in partnership with the not-for-profit Australian organisation, the Garage Sale Trail Foundation.
