Jump on board the Garage Sale Trail

22 Aug, 2019

Wodonga Council will once again be part of Australia’s biggest community and sustainability event - Garage Sale Trail.

Registrations have opened for the weekend-long event on Saturday, October 19 and Sunday, October 20.

There's a great incentive to register early with the first 1250 sellers who register before September 10 to receive a free seller pack with posters, price tags and more to help you have a winning garage sale.

Residents are encouraged to put secondhand first to reduce waste, the number of new products made and the overall impact of stuff on the planet.

Registrations are free and open now for households, schools, community groups and anyone who is up for a weekend of fun.

Wodonga households, schools and community groups will join more than 400,000 people across the country for the ninth annual Garage Sale Trail.

The multi award-winning community and sustainability event is powered by more than 140 local councils nation-wide.

It is expected that this year’s weekend long event will involve more Australians than ever before, who will choose to reuse at more than 16,000 garage sale events to be held across the country.

The event provides a way to meet your neighbours and connect with the broader community, while also decluttering and raising money for yourself or charity.

Last year on average:

  • Household garage sales made $309
  • Participants connected with 46 local people
  • More than 500kgs of stuff was sold and re-distributed at each garage sale
