Canberra's biggest weekly garage sale


The Trash and Treasure Market is held every Sunday morning in the carpark of the Jamison Plaza shopping centre in Macquarie, 10 minutes north of the CBD. It is open between 7am - 12:30pm, however check the website for current details and times. It is gold coin entry to get into the markets, with all proceeds going to the Rotary Club of Belconnen. Once you start browsing, it is easy to stay awhile and get caught up in bargain hunting at the dozens of stalls set up around the large carpark. Shop for clothes, plants, furniture, homewares, bikes, antiques, toys, bric-a-brac and a wide range of second-hand wares.

This market is an enjoyable way to spend a Sunday morning - looking for your own treasure amongst the variety of eclectic stalls. It is clear that one person's trash is definitely another person's treasure, with hundreds of people visiting these markets each week. This market is like the biggest garage sale you have ever seen - with hot food and fruit stalls thrown in for extra value. It is where you will find that unusual item you have been looking for - and a lot more.
