Garage Sale Trail is Australia’s festival of pre-loved stuff, dedicated to helping you extend the life of your unwanted things and find the ultimate pre-loved gem.
In 2022, over 300,000 Australians shopped or sold at more than 15,000 garage sales across the nation. Together, they extended the life of over 3 million kgs of stuff saving these items from landfill and maximising the value of all the energy and resources that goes in to making the stuff we buy. It’s the circular economy in action!
Garage Sale Trail is happening on 11-12 and 18-19 November 2023, Australia-wide. You can take part on one day or more.

About Garage Sale Trail
Garage Sale Trail is a not-for-profit social enterprise founded by Sydney mates, Darryl Nichols and Andrew Valder. It seeks to educate Australians on the importance of reuse, and the need to take individual responsibility for the impact of our consumption habits whilst also building stronger, more connected and more resilient communities.
Now into its teenage years, Garage Sale Trail has grown from a grass roots idea in Bondi Beach where it started in 2010 to being powered by over 80 councils nationally and supported by PayPal, the NSW Environment Protection Authority, Queensland Government & Sustainability Victoria.
