Partners

A bunch of amazing local governments and like-minded organisations partner with us each year to help stop useable stuff going to landfill and strengthen community connections.

Their support makes the event free for 300,000 Australians to participate in and enables us to provide you with resources, tips and support.

Show them some love. They, like you, officially rock 🤘🏾


Tool Care & Restoration Partner


Garage Sale Trail and Cyclone Tools have joined forces to celebrate the craftmanship and knowledge that keep tools in use for generations.

Together, we want to help Australians rediscover the joy of restoration, the satisfaction of maintaining what we own and the pride that comes from passing things on in great working order.


Media partner

Peppermint is a magazine all about style, sustainability and substance. Sharing stories that inspire a more mindful and creative way of living. Together we champion conscious consumption and celebrate doing good in the world.


State Government Partners

This project is a NSW EPA Waste and Sustainable Materials Strategy initiative, funded from the waste levy and supports achievement of the NSW Government's target to reduce illegal dumping across the state.



Garage Sale Trail has received funding from the Queensland Government’s Recycling and Jobs Fund.



Community partners


Just like the 1,300+ Men's Sheds across the country, Garage Sale Trail is all about camaraderie and community. In 2025, Men's Sheds across across the country will be hosting garage sales selling pre-loved and handmade goods.


In 2025, Neighbourhood Houses & Centres will be hosting garage sales and open days over the Trail weekends. Many of them even have spaces reserved for locals to sell from too.

Our sister organisation, Grow it Local, is on a mission to educate, support and inspire more Australians to grow, share and eat locally grown food. Keep your eyes peeled for plant sales popping up near you!
