We already have many dozens of brand new shoes donated by local and online shoe shops but we are asking the public to donate their shoes that are surplus to their requirements and in as new or good condition to our sale. This is a fundraiser for Greenstone Doors Charitable Trust www.greenstonedoors.co.nz....... It also serves as an opportunity for families to get good quality shoes for their family at a very reasonable price. Shoes of all sizes and styles accepted (and also handbags and belts etc). They can be either dropped off to the front porch of 23 Burnside Street Waterloo or to St Peter and Paul's Church at 60 Knights Road (if open) or you can call Monica on 021 2991138 to have any saleable shoes collected.

FREE - top half of rotary clothes line (think was old Hills)

George from Naenae

The winder disintegrated on us so we can't keep the line up. The top half while rusty still has some life in it. Might be useful to someone if kids have been playing and wrecked your top half? Must go by noon Sunday or will be dismantled and scrapped. The outside diameter of the pole is … View moreThe winder disintegrated on us so we can't keep the line up. The top half while rusty still has some life in it. Might be useful to someone if kids have been playing and wrecked your top half? Must go by noon Sunday or will be dismantled and scrapped. The outside diameter of the pole is roughly 45mm so that's the inside diameter of the base part it needs to slide into.

The Benefits of Clean Curtains

Robert Anderson from Curtain Clean (The Curtain Store)

Curtains are an essential part of any home décor. They not only add beauty to a room but also serve practical purposes such as providing privacy, blocking light, and insulating the room. However, curtains can also become a haven for dust, dirt, and allergens, which can be harmful to your health. … View moreCurtains are an essential part of any home décor. They not only add beauty to a room but also serve practical purposes such as providing privacy, blocking light, and insulating the room. However, curtains can also become a haven for dust, dirt, and allergens, which can be harmful to your health. Regular cleaning of curtains can help remove these particles and keep your home healthy and clean.

Here are some reasons why cleaning curtains regularly is beneficial:

1. Remove Dust and Dirt: Curtains, like any other household item, collect dust and dirt over time. This can cause allergies, respiratory problems, and other health issues. Regular cleaning of curtains can help remove these particles and improve indoor air quality.
2. Improve the Look of Your Home: Clean curtains can improve the overall look of your home. They can add a fresh and inviting atmosphere to any room.
3. Prolong the Life of Curtains: Regular cleaning can help prolong the life of your curtains. Dirt and dust particles can cause the fabric to wear and tear faster than normal. Regular cleaning can prevent this and help extend the life of your curtains.
4. Remove Odours: Curtains can absorb odours from cooking, smoking, and other activities. Regular cleaning can help remove these odours and keep your home smelling fresh.
5. Protect from Sun Damage: Curtains can fade and become damaged over time from exposure to sunlight. Regular cleaning can help remove any build-up of dirt and dust particles that can contribute to sun damage.
6. Prevent Mould and Mildew Growth: Curtains that are not cleaned regularly can become a breeding ground for mould and mildew. Regular cleaning can prevent the growth of these harmful substances.

In conclusion, regular cleaning of curtains is important for both health and aesthetic reasons. It helps remove dust, dirt, and allergens, improves the look of your home, prolongs the life of your curtains, removes odours, protects from sun damage, and prevents mould and mildew growth. Therefore, it is recommended to add curtain cleaning to your regular cleaning routine to maintain a clean and healthy home.
