The North East Waste Forum is again coordinating Second Hand Saturday across the member council’s of Clarence Valley, Ballina, Byron, Tweed and Richmond Valley. Second Hand Saturday is a north coast community event involving the FREE co-ordination and promotion of neighbourhood garage sales across the region, for the sale of second hand goods between residents. Second Hand Saturday helps to reduce the amount of waste going to landfill, enables residents to participate in the promotion of reuse and repair, and engage them in an environmentally, socially and economically rewarding activity.
