Nanaimo Recycles Trunk Sale

Saturday, July 18, 2020

Location and time to be confirmed

The sale consists of vendors selling their unwanted items from the trunk of their car to bargain hunters. This free reuse event aims to give unwanted household items a longer lease on life and to reduce the amount of waste sent to landfill.

This sale is intended to promote reuse and recycling of unwanted “garage sale” type items. No retail-type booths or sale of new items will be permitted. The only new items permitted for sale are items made from recycled materials.

Reuse Rendevous

Saturday & Sunday, August 8-9, 2020

Looking to declutter your home, garage or workplace? Give old household items a new life with the City of Nanaimo's annual curbside event.

Set items in front of your house on Friday evening or Saturday morning and be sure to mark them as “Free”! On Saturday & Sunday, people are invited to cruise the streets and help themselves to any of the goodies, free of charge. Any items remaining must be taken back in by the owner; the City will NOT be collecting these items. The event is intended as a unique opportunity to give away unwanted items.
