Second Hand Saturday

Second Hand Saturday is the North Coast's biggest day of garage sales and during 2011, the event had over 600 households take part with almost 200 of these in the Tweed alone. The event runs every second year so keep an eye out in the Tweed Link or on this page for the next advertised date in 2013. Alternatively, why not hold your own garage sale or street garage sale day and promote the reuse of items rather than sending them to landfill.

The event is hosted by the North East Waste Forum (NEWF), a waste management group whose member councils include Tweed, Ballina, Byron, Clarence Valley and Richmond Valley. The councils work together in the Northern Rivers Region to achieve sustainable waste and resource management.
