Declutter your home, help someone in need and support a more sustainable future by being part of the Brimbank Reusable Goods Drop-off Day.
Brimbank residents can conveniently drop-off their unwanted household items for reuse at this free event on Saturday, November 25, from 9am-2pm opposite the Brimbank Operations Centre, on Stadium Drive in Keilor Park.
Residents can drop-off items in good condition for reuse including, televisions, computers, small household appliances (such as vacuums, rice cookers, toasters and kettles), furniture (small items that will fit into small apartments), coffee tables, bikes, bed bases (all sizes but no mattresses), homewares, bags of clothes, shoes, handbags, backpacks, bags of towels and linen.
Items in good condition will be donated to two local charities, West Welcome Wagon and Helping Hands Mission, who each provide vital support to those in need.
Helping Hands Mission chief executive Melanie Gill said the team are hoping to receive a “little bit of everything,” from the local community.
“Demand is higher than we have ever seen and we’re only just moving into the Christmas period now,” she said.
“Any donations that we receive, the benefits are multiplied, because people are supporting a local charity who will in turn support local families, as well as diverting items from landfill and giving them a new home. It’s a win-win.
“We’re really excited for the drop off day, and we have our fingers crossed that lots of local families will have a dig through their cupboards and their homes and donate items they no longer use.”
