South Burnett residents have been invited to take part in this weekend’s massive Australia-wide Garage Sale Trail.

Registrations are free and open to households, schools and community groups (and everyone else!).

The eighth annual Garage Sale Trail involves 140 councils across Australia, including the South Burnett Regional Council.

Mayor Keith Campbell said it was a fun and social way for Council to encourage reuse and to help educate the community about waste.

“Garage Sale Trail also provides a way to meet your neighbours and connect with the broader community while decluttering and raising money for yourself or local causes,” he said.

“We’re really pleased to be involved in this grass-roots event (which)  is growing year on year.”

According to organisers, last year the average household made $370 on the day and redistributed 250kg of stuff.
