Second-Hand Sunday

Secondhand Sunday will be held on the first Sunday of every month except January.

Next Secondhand Sunday is 4 March

Secondhand Sunday is a chance to give away household items you no longer want.  You can also collect items you want from others for free.

What items you can put out

You can put out any items except food and dangerous goods (chemicals, faulty electrical equipment, firearms) and definitely no rubbish.

What you need to do

• fill in the online form to register your address
• you need to let us know by the Thursday before the Sunday, so we can advertise your address.  A list of addresses will be available on our website.

On the day

• Put the sign (green leaflet) on your letterbox so people know you have items to give away.
• Put the items together in a neat pile, either at your letterbox or next to your driveway.
• At 12noon remove the sign and pack-up any items not taken. 
  • It's your responsibility to remove anything not taken.  If you leave it outside your property boundary then you are in breech of the dumping rubbish bylaw.

Tips for collectors of secondhand Sunday stuff

• Only take items from properties advertised and where the secondhand Sunday sign is displayed.
• Only collect between 9am - 12noon - no earlier.
• Do not enter the property; the items should be at the front gate.
• We recommend that you check anything you collect to make sure it's safe.

What to do with the leftover stuff

After 12noon you must take the items back inside your property.
