Huge 'moving to Oz' garage sale Sat 4 May
PICS added! Sales start 7.30am (no earlier!) at 16 Carew St, Nawton, Hamilton. We’re moving to Australia and can’t fit everything in the container, so out it goes at a garage sale... Have added some pics - there will be more stuff again but this shows a chunk of it.
• Furniture items, including desks, chests of drawers, chairs, shelving units, bookcases, mirrors, tables, bedsides and sundry bits and bobs...
• Outdoor furniture/storage, potted plants.
• Large Kathmandu tent.
• Tools, garage contents and paint.
• Cabling and tech bits.
• Lawn mower, chainsaw, chilly bins.
• PLUS: lots of toys (including a whole Nerf arsenal!), CDs, books, some kitchen gear and ornaments, suitcases, knick-knacks and good-quality clothes and shoes.
Come nab yourself some cool stuff. We also have a beautiful rimu roll-top desk for sale, as well as an exceptional trailer (set up for taking bikes but also great as an all-purpose trailer): please PM me if interested and I’ll scoot you the Trade Me links. Any questions please ask - but please note we won't be selling garage sale items prior to the day.

Poll: Would you help your kids out with buying a home?
OPINION: Over the past year, I’ve had the same conversation with many Waikato families again and again.
A child has found a house. The market feels like it’s moving. There’s pressure to act quickly. And before anyone has really had time to think it through, parents are being asked to step in with cash, guarantees, or equity from their own home.

Poll: What do you think of the new police move-on powers?
Central Hamilton businesses are welcoming police being given new powers to move on vagrants, with a city retail advocate saying the previous hands-off approach wasn’t working.
On Sunday the Government announced it would grant police powers to order any individual rough sleeping, begging, or displaying disorderly behaviour to move on.
