City of Casey is taking part in something pretty iconic this year, and want resident to be involved.
It’s time to reuse, rethink and recycle when the Garage Sale Trail (GST) comes to town on Saturday 19 and Sunday 20 October.
Repurpose those second-hand goods that are cluttering up the closet and be part of this nation-wide event by registering your sale.
Households, schools, community groups and local businesses are invited to host a sale or shop the trail, joining more than 400,000 Australians in this huge movement that makes one man’s trash another man’s treasure!
For shoppers, the GST is a great opportunity to pick up a bargain and find something unique, while also doing your bit for the environment. For sellers, it’s a great chance to get rid of those bits and bobs that you might not love as much as you used to!
Casey mayor Amanda Stapledon said she was thrilled Casey was taking part in this year’s movement and can’t wait to see the bargains on sale.
“The GST is a wonderful opportunity for us to put our environment first and reduce the amount of waste going to landfill by reusing what’s already there,” she said.
“This is one of Australia’s biggest community and sustainability events; one gigantic weekend of waste-reducing, planet-saving and treasure hunting.
“It’s also an opportunity to make a little bit of extra money, and it’s all for a good cause.”
Registration for this event is free. If residents register their sale in the City of Casey, once all locations are confirmed, council will promote this as part of the overall event and encourage the community to come and shop with you.
