Second Hand Sunday rolls around again

August 19th, 2015

It's time again for a spring clean and the opportunity to offer to others the stuff you no longer need that could be the treasure someone else is looking for.

Tasman District and Nelson City Councils are running another Second Hand Sunday in both districts on Sunday September 13th, starting at 10am.

"Yes, I will be doing this again" is the feedback from both those who offered goods that were removed and those who fossicked at the last one.

Freely given and freely taken away, the goods could be anything from old chairs, books, clothing or left over bits and pieces from building projects but is not to include food, dangerous goods like faulty electrical equipment, or chemicals.

To take part, all you have to do is complete the registration form on line with the tasman.govt.nz (or nelson.govt.nz) website, using the search phrase 'second hand sunday'. Your address will be published on the website as long as you register before 9am Thursday 10 September.

On the day, put your items out on the driveway or front lawn - not the footpath - and attach the downloadable poster to your letterbox so people can easily identify your address. You can also register and obtain the poster from the TDC Customer Service Sentre in Hickmott Place.

Organisers require that all uncollected items are removed at the end of the day.

For people who are keen to access this free stuff, the list of households involved can be downloaded from the Council websites from Friday 11th September.
