Countdown on to Garage Sale Trail

THERE'S just one month to go until Bundaberg's Garage Sale Trail event and 25 sales have already been registered throughout the region.

Council waste and recycling spokesman Vince Habermann said it was fantastic to see the community once again throwing its support behind the event which will be held across Australia on Saturday, October 24.

"The Garage Sale Trail provides benefits to our community on so many levels by helping residents, groups and organisations to make some extra cash, meet their neighbours and ensure unwanted items are rehomed," Cr Habermann said.

"This provides benefits to (the) council because it reduces the amount of reusable items ending up in landfill."

Cr Habermann said last year about 100 sales were registered throughout the region and Council was hoping for a similar number this year."We've already got sales registered in Buxton, Bullyard, Bargara and everywhere in between," Cr Habermann said.
