Garage Sale Trail is a free and fun way to raise money for your group, club or charity as well as clear out unused or unwanted items, recruit new members and raise awareness of the good work you do locally.
Last year almost $1 million was raised for community groups, schools and charities nationally, with the average community group making over $1,056 in one day.
