If you love to rummage through other people’s trash to find treasures, circle April 21 on your calendar.
On that day — during Earth Week — residents of Port Coquitlam and Port Moody participating in the annual city-wide garage sales will have their unwanted goods out for sale or recycling for bargain hunters.
PoMo residents wanting to register their address with the city (portmoody.ca) to sell their wares have until April 6 while PoCo citizens need to sign up by April 11 via portcoquitlam.ca/garagesale.
For residents of PoCo condos and townhouses, the city is offering space in the parking lot at Gates Park. Private sellers are responsible for their own belongings as well as set-up, take-down and clean-up.
Meanwhile, Coquitlam, which has its city-wide garage sale May 26 (registration starts April 1), is also have a rain barrel truckload sale and a compost giveaway; details of that program will be available next week at coquitlam.ca.
