FRANKSTON’S newest second-hand store is a must visit for bargain hunters and collectors.

The Treasure Chest, opened last year at the new Frankston Regional Recycling and Recovery Centre at Harold Rd in Skye, has quickly filled up with restored goods for sale to the public.

The centre and the shop are run by independent contractor KTS Recycling with all shop profits ploughed back in to the running of the recycling centre where Frankston residents can drop off unwanted green waste, mattresses, TVs, paint, batteries, tyres, oil and hard waste. A fee applies in some instances.

“The Treasure Chest aligns with the wider aim of the Frankston Regional Recycling and Recovery Centre, to improve sustainability by providing a convenient and affordable waste recovery centre which reduces the region’s contribution to landfill,” Mayor Cr James Dooley said.

Preloved furniture, clothes, vinyl records, books, electronics, toys, bikes, building materials and more are all available for sale.

Anyone visiting the recycling and recovery centre in the month of March can be in with a chance of winning an iPad Mini 2 in a weekly giveaway.
