Second Chance, Walliston

The City of Kalamunda has opened a brilliant community initative earlier this year, at the Walliston Transfer Station aka “The Walli Tip”. The community can donate their unneeded second-hand household goods to Kalamunda’s Second Chance reuse shop, as well as shop for bargains. As they say “one person’s trash, is another person’s treasure”!

The reuse shop is managed by Workpower, a WA disability service provider, giving many of the workers there a chance at meaningful employment. Both donations and purchases will support people with disability in employment.

There is a small amount of parking outside the shop. Cash and EFTPOS facilities are available too. It is an absolute Aladdin’s cave for thrifters, those who love a bargain and people that may like to up-cycle furniture.

Here’s what you can expect to find…

Furniture with no rips or stains
Electrical goods in working order
Sporting equipment & bikes
Outdoor furniture
Crockery and cutlery
Ornaments and artwork
Tools and gardening equipment
Toys
Clothes
Books and CD’s
Doors and windows
Metal sheeting
Fence panels
Eligible Container Deposit Scheme containers

My husband was delighted to find a big pile of well-priced second-hand records, as well as books and DVDs. Be sure to drop by and see what treasures you will find!

See their website for more information.
