From camper trailers, wine-making equipment to your favourite artist’s vinyl, you’ll find it all at Second Hand Saturday, which is only a week away.

Second Hand Saturday - the biggest day of garage sales on the North Coast, will be held next Saturday, November 4th. Hundreds of garage sales across the Northern Rivers and North Coast will be held and details can be found on the Second Hand Saturday website next week.

Council together with North East Waste are once again hosting the annual community event, which will see hundreds of garage sales across the Northern NSW Coast selling pre-loved treasures on Saturday 4 November.

Coordinator of Second Hand Saturday Linda Tohver said “This year, Second Hand Saturday forms part of our regional celebrations for Buy Nothing New Month, a month to challenge ourselves to support reuse and repair over buying new wherever possible.”

"Holding a garage sale is a great way to declutter our homes, make some extra cash and give items we no longer need a second chance at being used again,” she said.

“Shopping at garage sales is a way of contributing to our local circular economy – keeping things that still have value out of landfill, extending their life-span and reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Plus shopping at garage sales is so much cheaper!”.

Did you know that roughly three in four Australians buy pre-loved clothing? Furniture and household goods are also a popular second-hand buy, and with the cost of living at a constant increase, many more are turning to pre-loved options over new.

So, if you’ve started your spring clean and uncovered items that haven’t seen the light of day for a very long time, then sign up to hold a garage sale this Second Hand Saturday! Or if you are after a bargain or want to find a special treasure, make sure you visit one of the hundreds of garage sales that will be held across our region.

For those wanting to hold a garage sale you can register up until next Friday 3rd November for a web-listing only.
