Giveaway your unwanted items to keep them out of the landfill: Curbside Giveaway Days returns
Newmarket's Curbside Giveaway Days allows residents to place unwanted, gently used items at the curb for others to scoop up, free of charge.
Think of a garage sale without the money exchange or bartering. Mark items free and just leave them at the end of your property.
The event takes place Saturday from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. Any items remaining after 5 p.m. must be removed that evening.
So, what can be placed at the curb? Here's some ideas:
Books, CD's, and DVD's
Furniture and small appliances
Sports equipment and toys
Yard and gardening equipment (e.g. lawn mowers, shovels, rakes, etc.)
Kitchen gadgets, dishes, cutlery, pots and pans
Construction material (e.g. nails, paint, wood, etc.) and tools
Artwork and mirrors
Electronics
Clothing
Items that shouldn't be set out for pickup include anything that can't be reused.
Printable FREE labels are available here.
The next Curbside Giveaway Day is scheduled for Sat., Aug. 23.
