Please No Dumping!
We love your donations, but leaving items outside of business hours can cause problems for our shop and community. Here’s why:

💧 Weather Damage: Items left outside can get ruined by rain, wind, or sun.
🔒 Theft & Vandalism: Donations left unattended may be rummaged through or taken.
💸 Extra Costs: Damaged or improperly dumped items may need to be disposed of at a cost to the shop.
🐀 Pest Problems: Food, clothing, or furniture left outside can attract rats, insects, and other pests.
🧹 More Work for Volunteers: Staff and volunteers must clean up messes instead of sorting and selling donations.
🚪 Blocking Entry/Exit: Piles of donations can create hazards and make it harder for customers and staff to access the shop.

Please bring your donations during business hours. This helps us care for your items, keep the shop running smoothly, and thank you in person for your generosity! 💙

We want to take a moment to thank everyone who continues to support our little op shop through donations and shopping with us, we truly couldn’t do what we do without you.

However, over the past month we have really struggled to keep up with the large amount of donations being dumped outside the shop when we are closed. Unfortunately, items left outside are often damaged by weather, vandalism, or are simply not suitable for resale. This means a lot of it cannot be used and must be thrown away.

As a small, non-for-profit op shop, the cost of bin collections adds up very quickly, and sadly we can’t afford to be paying to dispose of other people’s rubbish. This has a real impact on our ability to continue supporting our community.

We kindly ask that donations are only brought in during business hours and not left outside the shop. We have signage on our windows that explains this, along with a list of items we are unable to accept, including:
Electrical items
Large/bulky items (we are a very small shop)
Used bedding such as pillows and doonas
ANY BABY ITEMS such as car seats prams cots prams!

📍 Donation Hours:
🕘 9:30am – 2:00pm

If you’re unsure whether we can accept something, please feel free to ask our staff when we’re open, message us on Facebook or give us a call at the op shop on 0419 097 398 we’re always happy to help.

Thank you for your understanding, kindness, and continued support. Together we can make sure donations truly help, not hurt, our shop and community
