The Garage Sale Trail 2012

Overview

Dumpster-divers unite! The Garage Sale Trail has all of your treasure-hunting covered with an organised one-day, city-wide event. Whether you are looking to sell or to buy, are on your own or a company, the Garage Sale Trail has something to offer you. Zooming in on a hyper-local area, the Trail aims to function as "a platform for anyone who wants to make some money or raise money for a cause and for anyone who wants to connect with their community".

The Cantina Mobil Mexican food truck will kick off the event at 10am on May 5, in the cul-de-sac of Richards Avenue in Surry Hills. The trail will proceed from there, including everything from plants at the Royal Botanic Gardens Garage Sale to fabric and clothes from the Cloth, Fabric and Art Sale to books from city libraries.

It's a great opportunity to add some 'old is new' decor to your house, or to get all that clutter out of your garage, all while contributing to and connecting with your immediate community. And, of course, you don't need a garage to participate. Get involved by registering your sale online, shopping on sale day (May 5) or donating to the Garage Sale Trail Foundation.
