Garage Sale Header

Save the Date: Saturday 30th and Sunday 31st May will be our third annual community garage sale

Donations are now welcome!

Please drop your donations to the NQCC Office, 114 Boundary Street, Railway Estate.

During Business Hours, donations are welcome on our verandah.

After Hours or if the office is unattended, please leave donations under the building and we will check for them and move them upstairs at the next available opportunity.

We will accept all donations that are:

  • clean
  • resalable or reusable in some capacity

Β 

If you have questions regarding if your donation is suitable, or if you have a larger than will fit on the verandah item, please contact Monita at [email protected] or message us via the event page on Facebook for further advice and solutions.

This garage sale is entirely managed by volunteers, please be patient with us and our response times.

We thank you for your donation, and in return we offer to ethically rehome your items, even if they don't sell during the garage sale weekend. Our small team of volunteers spend hours after the event sorting, organising, pricing, listing on free to advertise sites and potentially donating to researched causes to avoid your items ending in landfill.
