Each year the City of Steinbach provides local residents the opportunity to sell their items at the City’s Annual Community Garage Sale. This year’s sale has been announced and will be taking place on Saturday, April 28 at the T.G. Smith Centre starting at 9:30am.
Residents have the opportunity to reserve a spot to sell goods – the cost is $20 per spot. Interested participants are asked to contact Jason at 204-346-6217 or email jpeters@steinbach.ca for more information, or to reserve a spot.
As in past years, recovered bicycles will also be sold at the sale, either by cash and carry or by an open bidding auction. Bikes that require some fixing will be available for immediate purchase, while the remainder of bikes that are in a bit better condition, although may still require some attention, will be available through a public bid process. Interested buyers will enter a written bid for each bike. Bids will be accepted until Noon at which time the highest bidder will be announced. Bid participants within $5 of the successful bid will have the opportunity to enter a final bid amount.
The City notes that all proceeds from the bike and garage sale are used for recreational programs in Steinbach throughout the year.
