Prepare to welcome a sustainable treat to your calendar this November with the Burdekin Shire Council’s Garage Sale Trail set to ignite the Ayr Show Grounds Hall!
As part of the national Garage Sale Trail initiative, the Council has excitedly announced the community can expect two weekends of eco-friendly shopping which will take place on the 9 and 10 of November, and the 16 and 17 of November from 9am to 1pm.
Operating with a focus on sustainability, and waste reduction, the event will feature the “Refresh for Less” preloved clothing and accessories sale, as well as the ‘Boot Full of Loot’ car boot sale, with stalls packed with repurposed items.
Mayor Pierina Dalle Cort shared her excitement for the fantastic event, adding the initiative aligns with Council’s commitment to waste reduction and sustainability.
“It's a great way for our community to participate in the circular economy, find quality preloved items, and reduce what we would send to landfill,” Mayor Dalle Cort said.
“I encourage everyone to get involved - whether you're decluttering your home or updating your wardrobe with clothing and accessories.”
Members of the community, and businesses are invited to be a part of this wonderful event, and registrations for both the Refresh for Less sale or the Boot Full of Loot car boot sale are now open.
