Garage Sale Trail

Garage Sale Trail is the nation's biggest secondhand treasure hunt as over 400,000 Australians join in to host a garage sale or shop the trail. With free registration, how-to guides and promotional resources, it's garage sales made easy over two big weekends.

The City of Hobart is a proud partner of Garage Sale Trail, along with many other Tasmanian councils.

Organise a garage sale
