violethaze Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 I'll be looking for a number of items to furnish the house I'm moving to in the Kingston area of Tasmania. If you have, or know of, anything being sold or given away in the next few weeks, please let me know as I'll be needing a few things. If you happen to see a notice for a garage sale in the Kingston/Hobart?huonville area please let me know. THANKS. definitely wanting: fridge washing machine couch/sofa chairs tv coffee table shelves bed/mattress plates, bowls, cups and glasses Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blossom Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 Have a look for a local freecycle group. We got lots of stuff that way when we moved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skani Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 Most advertising for garage sales appears in the Saturday edition of 'The Mercury' newspaper which you'll be able to check when you arrive. Also Gumtree http://www.gumtree.com.au/s-garage-sale/kingborough/c18486l3000335 and,as mentioned, Freecycle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
violethaze Posted January 28, 2013 Author Share Posted January 28, 2013 Thanks for the suggestions. I'm definitely keeping an eye on Gumtree. I had thought about the freecycle (which I used to great success both giving and receiving) in London but the local one in Melbourne I belong to is kind of rubbish. Good to know I might have some luck with my local Tasmania one. I was going to just keep an eye out for garage sales but it is good to know that many are advertised in Saturday's The Mercury.

Skani Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 I haven't used Freecycle but I have friends who have scored some quality items here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
